Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
pale white wine
air Nose
imagine some fresh apple juice blended with some seawater, a brew to which you’d have then added quite some crushed chalk, drops of ink, a hint of carbolinium, and a little ski wax to improve this baby’s gliding properties once you’ll have it past your gullet. It’s relatively light, but very clean, quite subtle, and certainly not very ‘rummy’, which is just as good even if we all remember Cadenhead’s famously superb green 1973
restaurant Palate
perhaps touches of rum this time, as if the lovely mineral side had been coated with a little cane honey. Just a little! Other than that, it’s well a coastal, rather smoky/Longrowy Springbank, with a little green pepper, shoe polish, brine, and a feeling of coal plus artichokes plus oysters. Please don’t try that at home
timer Finish
rather long, with more pepper and bitter herbs, always with this waxy quality
