Tasting Notes

Colour

straw

air Nose

an interesting fight between a ‘simple fruitiness’ that’s often to be found in very young Speysiders and a ‘walnutty smokiness’. Both don’t seem to mingle too much but that doesn’t mean that this is unpleasant. Whiffs of warm cooked butter, toasts, hops and overripe apples

restaurant Palate

what appears to be the Manzanilla’s influence really comes out now, with the same kind of grassy bitterness that one finds in old walnuts, notes of heavily caramelised beer (Guinness?), then orange marmalade and heavily sugared tea, and finally maybe ‘a saltiness’ but that may come only from my mind. Ha, autosuggestion! Sweeter and rounder than on the nose

timer Finish

medium long, on caramel and salt
