Tasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
this sister cask is much less fruity but woodier and grassier, the oak having been more active. More vanilla, ginger and plain sawdust and a faint sourness (yoghurt). The most austere of the three. With water: even more austere and grassy. Chives, mint, lawn, a little dill
restaurant Palate
ah yes, now it’s my favourite, very old Highlands style, with that great fruits/minerals combo that’s hard to describe. Resinous honey, lemon marmalade, cough drops, pepper… And it’s all really big. With water: more of the same, but big time. Probably a little less complex and ‘entertaining’ than cask #951 but maybe even more satisfying for its great compactness
timer Finish
long, fully on marmalade. Something like rosemary in the aftertaste
