Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
everything has merged, unified in a dense tapestry of ointments, oils, waxes, and old herbal liqueurs. Irresistibly charming. You reach a point where it becomes impossible to separate the aromas, so tertiary, so intrinsic to the spirit in the glass, that analysis gives way to experience. And perhaps that’s exactly how it should be
restaurant Palate
it brings to mind the Brora 1972s from G&M, slightly worrying at first due to the low ABV, then astonishingly complex and explosive once tasted. Let’s just say it’s the best smoked and salted butter caramel on earth, with a fragility that paradoxically becomes a strength
timer Finish
inevitably a little short but now comes the parade of missed notes, bergamot and kumquat, smoked fish, incense and ashes
