Tasting Notes

Colour

straw

air Nose

indeed, it is a rather candied, rounded peat, without the coastal side of most Islays, so perhaps rather ‘Ardmore’, with these yellow peaches and white flowers. Behind that, a bit of humus, fern, dead leaves, then more citrus. Perhaps a little eucalyptus, or these small Indian cigarettes called bidies. It’s fresh, rather light peat

restaurant Palate

clean, zesty, light peat, with a lot of freshness. If you could smoke grapefruits, I guess this what you’d get, more or less. Lemon grass, perhaps a little green curry and a little chocolate

timer Finish

medium, fresh, smoky, clean. I seem to find a little roasted sesame oil
