Tasting Notes

Colour

white wine

air Nose

powerful of course but fresh, young and fruity – as expected. Rather ‘noseable’ at such high strength, displaying freshly cut pears, oranges, a little linseed oil, very distinct whiffs of coal smoke, then cappuccino, hints of olive oil... What a beautiful young whisky! Classy profile, even if it gets slightly yeasty after a moment.. With water: the sweetness disappeared and it got much grassier and yeastier for a while, with apple juice making a comeback, together with a little oil (fusel, olive.) Clean but simpler with water

restaurant Palate

young, fierce but balanced young whisky, certainly rougher than on the nose and maybe lacking a few more years of ageing. Other than that the fruitiness is perfect (pears, pineapples and apples, none excessively dominant.) Water should really help here. With water: indeed, it got almost perfect now. Very clean, simply but beautifully fruity, with just hints of pepper and a little coffee and toffee. Slight smokiness as well

timer Finish

long, in the same vein but with also a little salt
