Tasting Notes

Colour

straw

air Nose

you do feel custard, vanilla cream, that's the rejuvenation. Caol Ila takes it well. Then brine, lime, seashells, coal tar, ointments, seaweed… With water: old fabric (old tweed), old magazines, paraffin, dunnage, swimming pool, and certainly less vanilla, as if water had eradicated the effects of that rejuvenation

restaurant Palate

excellent, with citrus upfront this time, then bitterer herbs, ashes, green pepper, some green curry perhaps… With water: a few bitter herbs, some limes and lemons and grapefruits, salt, cracked pepper, and a tiny drop of that stronger chartreuse, which they call 'Elixir Végétal'. Stuff for grown-ups, I tell you

timer Finish

long, on similar notes
