Tasting Notes

Colour

pale gold

air Nose

bizarrely, I find this one rather more ‘Aberfeldy’, with these orchard fruits, the gooseberries, the greengages, the apples… But indeed it’s also got something slightly sulphury ala Benrinnes or Mortlach, which isn’t very Aberfeldy to say the least. Engine oil, paraffin… Fun stuff

restaurant Palate

not too sure. What to think? Some tart fruits are fighting putty and plasticine, which creates a bizarre, slightly dissonant feeling. Green tea, melon skin, fresh apricots, linseed oil, wax…

timer Finish

quite long, but there isn’t any clear winner. Fruit-flavoured putty? Borders soapiness
