Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
less entertaining, but much cleaner and straighter than the Namibian, as we would have expected. Somewhat in the style of peated Chichibu, even if it would tend to display more earths, ashes and leaves, and perhaps less straight lemons. Very faintly mouldy. With water: mud, damp chalk, wool and even tiny whiffs of wet dog (again, we're sorry, dogs!)
restaurant Palate
lapsang and resins over some rich and creamy fruitiness, it is almost as if they had smoked some classic readymade ex-bourbon Bimber. Of course that's not what they've been doing (but you can buy smoked water, min you!) but it does feel a bit like a turbo look on an old Porsche. Which, to be honest, I've now got a fondness for, isn't everything only a matter of time? With water: fresh and tangy. Salty smoke
timer Finish
medium, with lemons and seawater. Seawater from the River Thames? Also tangerines and a very small oyster
