Tasting Notes

Colour

full gold

air Nose

another funny one, with notes of juniper wood (ala early Mackmyra, ha) and sauna oils first, then tyre smoke and brand new shoes. And litres of raw porridge, young Ardbeg (yep) and new engine oil. With water: wonderful raw wool and proper bread (or pizza) dough

restaurant Palate

very smart cask-bill. A lot of lemon zest, pinewood, lemongrass, grapefruit, pine needles. To be honest I just couldn't recognise Swedish oak even if I tried hard – in fact I used to believe they had cut all the old oak trees to build ships – but indeed this is awesome. Pine smoke and lemon. With water: it's become more medicinal, more towards eucalyptus. Could be that Swedish oak would be closer to eucalyptus (than French of American oaks are). But sessile or pedunculate? (oh S., please)

timer Finish

long, smoky, lemony and resinous
