Tasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
this is a young CI with a fatter nose, slightly more rubbery, but also showing more diesel oil and olives, and consequently fewer purely coastal notes. Some lamp oil and a touch of tequila follow
restaurant Palate
oysters with olives, lemon with mezcal, and a clearly tarry side. The salinity only grows stronger and begins to play around on your lips
timer Finish
I thought I might find the rounder, softer side of the rum, but no. Islay has more or less fully taken back control. Ultra-ripe pineapple notes linger in the aftertaste, though
