Tasting Notes

Colour

straw

air Nose

nice start on fresh butter and apple peelings, with mineral touches to go with all that (wet gravel). It’s very grassy in fact, with more and more cut lawn, fern, leaves… Also linseed oil, graphite oil, almonds… It’s austere whisky but I enjoy this style. Noses much younger than it actually is, obvious refill hogshead. How many refills?

restaurant Palate

starts both slightly thin (because of the strength?) and interestingly oily and lemony. There’s a feeling of… basil and oregano but also some oils and nuts. Pretty unusual, especially since it tends to become more herbal and a wee-tad earthy. Chartreuse?

timer Finish

quite long, with more lemon and more bitter almonds as well. The aftertaste remains herbal
