Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

Di’esch ganz guett denk ich, mett exact bluema ond… Oh excuse me, we are not in Switzerland are we, how very sad… but this nose is quite astonishing, subtle, complex, on those fantastic beehive-y aromas that well-behaved wood (not a new hoggie seasoned with cheap PX, mind you) would generate. Lighter honeys (acacia), nougat, hay, crushed hazelnuts, artisanal sunflower oil, Läckerli (not quite but we’re trying put a brave face on it, you understand…) and, drumroll… beeswax! Wunderbar

restaurant Palate

what? Allt-A-Bhainne? This is an ode to time and its impact on whisky. This reminds you that malt whisky = barley, water, yeast, wood and TIME. Overripe apples, waxes, blood oranges, marzipan, touches of ginger, some chutneys, and a rather marvellous pepper, bordering Thainess. Thai basil, Himalaya pepper, lime…

timer Finish

rather long, with some wonderfully fresh peppery notes. Really very ‘Thai’ (Thai cuisine, another thing that I just idolise). And guess what’s coming in the aftertaste? Butterscotch!
