Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
yup, a gorgeous and layered cocktail of waxes, green and yellow fruits, dessert wines, resinous fir woods and then stunning citrus liqueurs, crystallised citrus rinds and dried exotic fruits. It’s this same impression of texture that the other two have, but here it’s only magnified by age in the most gorgeous and impressive way. With water: gah! It’s getting even better, more pristine, more peaty, more saline and waxier. Starting to resemble some very old Longrow or Springbank almost. Also, some stunning notes of sandalwood, crushed sea shells and aspirin
restaurant Palate
stunning mix of waxes, dry, salty peat smoke, herbal teas, ointments, camphor and mineral oils. Like a lot of these old school profiles, it makes you think of great, aged dry white wines. It also makes me think of some brilliant old Glenlochy funnily enough. Given time it also becomes a bit more honeyed. With water: amazing, a perfectly cohesive, singular profile. A stunning balance of waxes, dry peat smoke, camphor, medicines and a beautifully taut mineral profile
timer Finish
long, bone-dry, superbly mineral and waxy. Alighting more on Clynelish finally I’d say
