Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
a little silent when compared with its sibling, probably because of the very high strength (63% at 26 years of age, not bad!) Apple peelings and fresh walnuts, linseed oil, iodine. Austere and sharp. With water: the same kind of development as in the DT, only even bigger. Extremely organic. Then seafood (fresh oysters, scallops), leather, ginger… And a little vanilla/ginger that reminds us of the Exclusive Cask. Grassy smokiness (garden bonfire under the rain.) Gets the more mineral. Flintstones
restaurant Palate
very, very strong but one can feel that it is great whisky- huh! With water: very vegetal and grassy, also with a bigger smokiness than in its bros and sistas. Apple peelings, green tea, liquorice, smoked trout (rather than sea fish), even smoked ham…
timer Finish
long, clean, liquoricy and salty
