Tasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
a very nice nose, with the peat starting to shade-off so to speak and new aromas starting to appear. ‘Old’ putty and turpentine, for example, pine sap, old chimney, tarry rope… It’s also quite briny. Touches of tangerines in the background. Very nice nose, really complex this time
restaurant Palate
superb half-salty, half-lemony attack, very zesty, zingy… The peat roars in the background, it’s not as ‘pleasantly faded’ as in the nose. Quite some pepper too. Let’s see what water will do to this baby… With water: excellent, it resembles the nose now. Old cough syrup, herbs liqueurs, salmiak (ahem, soft salmiak)… Very good
timer Finish
long, resinous, ashy as often, with touches of cardamom in the aftertaste
