Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

a rather Laphroaiggy one at first nosing, rather in the style of the DL for the Whisky Barrel that we had recently. But the smokiness is bigger, not tamed by age yet, and there’s also quite some carbolineum, antiseptic and seawater. Also diesel oil, Motul motor oil (I’ve decided to be more precise with motor oils – I’m joking) and a little coal tar. All that becomes quieter after a few minutes, with more room for almonds, apples, plasticine and putty

restaurant Palate

more on brine, lime juice and simply seawater. A lot of seawater… Also menthol flavoured tobacco and touches of liquorice drops. All good, with good body and the right punch

timer Finish

long, peaty, with more menthol and lemon drops, which gives a pleasant freshness to the aftertaste
