Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
pale amber
air Nose
this one isn’t extremely expressive at first nosing (except for quite some coffee) but it develops nicely, switching from coffee to tea (both black and green) and orange cake. Faint hints of mustard but also quite some floral notes in the background (peonies). Also eucalyptus
restaurant Palate
sweet and grassy attack, getting then very tannic, ‘green’ (apple peelings, grapefruit seeds) and lemony. This one tastes stronger than it is, let’s try it with a little water: it’s all in the same vein, just more ‘drinkable’. Grapefruits. Very faint cardboard. Mint-flavoured liquorice
timer Finish
long, getting very grassy again, with always this liquorice. In short, a rather raw malt, for experimented big boys I’d say. 84 points. Royal Lochnagar 29 yo 1977/2005 (55.6%, Blackadder Raw Cask, 209 bottles, cask #512)
