Tasting Notes

Colour

straw

air Nose

it starts very vegetal (freshly cut grass), developing on fresh walnuts, burning matchsticks, wax, with quite some smoke in the background (beech fire). Whiffs of turpentine, smoked cold cuts, marzipan, colza oil… Rather interesting even if it sort of lacks oomph

restaurant Palate

sweet and waxy attack (orgeat), with a pinch of salt right at the start. Very almondy, developing on candied orange zests, herbal tea, light caramel, fir-tree honey, mastic… Excellent, even if not extremely complex. Some cardboardy notes, spurts of powdered nutmeg… Yes, excellent, with a medium long but very balanced finish, on bitter almonds and mint. A perfect palate that nicely compensates the rather discreet nose. 87 points . Glenglassaugh 27 yo 1978/2005 (46.7%, Auld Distiller's Collection, Jack Wieber, ‘Dark Sherry’, 170 Bottles)
