Tasting Notes
Colour
amber
air Nose
completely different, the sherry’s much louder and the whole is much more expressive. Marzipan, maraschino, tobacco, raisins and newly sawn precious wood ‘or brand new humidor, cedar wood…) Littlemill’s oranges are playing in the background, together with a little chocolate. Touches of rhum agricole. With water: top notch, I say no more. Even something rye-ish, clearly American. Or Stagg?
restaurant Palate
rich, big, nervous, oaky, fruity, all falls into place. A true world whisky? There is a feeling of pencil shaving but when the wood’s top notch, no problems. Then oranges, a little tamarind, some cardamom, chocolate, raspberry jam… The sherry and the nervous spirit go very well together. I seem to remember an old Lochside ex-sherry that used to be more or less similar. With water: ah, maybe it became too dry now, water brought the tannins out. Heavy young rum. Forget
timer Finish
long, between rum and bourbon. What a funny beast! Mustardy aftertaste
