Tasting Notes

Colour

pale white wine

air Nose

ultra-clean, very mineral, almost saline, all on chalk, clay, and waxy apples, then hay and rotting apples. Gotta love rotting apples. Beer

restaurant Palate

more cask influence, with touches of coconut wine, then liquorice, then grapefruits and angelica. The angelica’s very obvious

timer Finish

long, with more coconut, angelica, and liquorice. Cedar wood, perhaps. It’s not a very common profile, and I’m not sure you could recognise the distillery, but this is just superb. Only the aftertaste is a little below par, becoming a little cardboardy/oaky. Don’t you need to be cruel to be kind?
