Tasting Notes

Colour

deep gold

air Nose

so very Glen Scotia! Some yoghurt and stout at first nosing, a yeastiness, porridge, then something pleasantly meadowy, and a dusty touch. Indeed, very Glen Scotia. With water: some chalk, dust, more porridge… And some green barley

restaurant Palate

a massive oak at first sips, crunching branches, raw ginger, beetroot, white pepper… I’d say this is either very young, or it’s been treated with new oak. Really ‘a style’. With water: benefits from water, becoming fruitier. Blood oranges, perhaps? But the peppery and gingery oak remains there

timer Finish

medium, bittersweet, always a little yeasty. Gritty oak in the aftertaste
