Tasting Notes

Colour

white wine

air Nose

certainly not as weak as expected but very cardboardy and waxy, with quite some paraffin, hints of olive oil, cod oil… Very unusual to say the least. Candle wax, motor oil, hints of lavender and then geranium. Nicer than it sounds ;-)

restaurant Palate

a bit weakish at the start (probably because I’m not used to low strength malts anymore) but otherwise we have the same, rather interesting cardboardy and waxy notes plus something like smoked tea, quite some olive oil again, a faint saltiness and also something like pickled herrings. Very strange but certainly not unpleasant, and a finish that’s longer than expected, just as ‘oily’, salty and cardboardy. Very entertaining if not academically good. 81 points . Dallas Dhu 17 yo 1974/1992 (43%, Signatory, cask #1496)
