Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

certainly younger and yeastier than the NAS version, much more on porridge and soaked grains. Notes of honey, heather and the same kind of smokiness as in the NAS. Rather pleasant again but a tad blander. In both versions there was something that reminded us of Highland Park (the smoky honeyness, if you see what I mean)

restaurant Palate

more body than the NAS at this point. Bigger honeyed notes, quite some chocolate again and a big maltiness. Old bottle effect starting, slight mouldiness, tea…

timer Finish

medium long, very caramelly now
