Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
ouch! Hot gravel, new leather, burnt toast, plasticine, aspirin. Tough, hot and austere. A few drops of olive oil hinting at better things in the depths. Let’s not beat about the bush but rather add some water quickly... with water: it’s good news, there’s a nice lemon barley water streak emerging now. Some soot, a little watercress, more chalk, perhaps even a stray apple peeling or two
restaurant Palate
perfectly clean malty malt whisky. Lots of cereals, sunflower oil, grass and a few stony notes. But there’s also some hints of plastic and even dung which is a little ‘wrong footing’. Something like sour spearmint and chemical vanilla as well. Tricky stuff. With water: better with water for sure. Some fresh sourdough bread, boiled lime sweets, coal dust, camphor, oatmeal and flapjack. Not shit, as we say in Leith; although there are multiple potential levels of ‘not shitness’
timer Finish
Medium length, some notes of hay, gravel and old biscuits
