Tasting Notes

Colour

white wine

air Nose

this is absolutely not Laphroaig, much softer, lighter in terms of smoke (I imagine many of the ppms were lost during transport—unless the malt was deep-frozen?). Beautiful lemon, mint, and oysters, without the medicinal side. There's a lovely, almost maritime freshness, which I really like, as everyone does, I agree. The menthol note is rather unusual

restaurant Palate

here we get a bit of camphor and a hint of mercurochrome, with a touch of fresh coriander, followed by a bit of lime blossom tea with honey. It works extremely well, with a very elegant simplicity. Some oriental spices, but not in the ‘Islay’ style—no tar, smoke, or ashes

timer Finish

a soft honeyed sweetness, ginger and honey biscuits, with a slight note of mild curry
