Tasting Notes

Colour

full gold

air Nose

this is much less exotic on the nose, much, much closer to Scottish malt whisky. Actually, to Japanese malt whisky. Unusual notes of ham and geranium, grenadine, Turkish delights, bubblegum and then much more oak and vanilla, Japanese-style. Something ‘modern’

restaurant Palate

very powerful at 46%, a good step above the older version at 40% but it’s also very, very bubblegummy (Haribos galore). Good oakiness. Turkish delights again, strawberry drops, white pepper from the wood and orange cake

timer Finish

long and unexpectedly salty, but there’s too much oak, which is a little bizarre in such a young whisky. I’m 100% sure they did not use oak chips/extracts, that is! Must be the climate…
