Tasting Notes

Colour

pale gold

air Nose

starts rather big and aromatic on a very ‘idiosyncratic’ mix of orange juice, mustard and coal, but gets then a little drier and dustier, with some slightly stale/sourish notes (old white wine). Whiffs of farmyard after the rain, apple juice, then more coal, stove, soot… Old style for sure, unlike any ‘current’ whisky

restaurant Palate

sweeter and a tad rounder, a good attack on notes of mead and arak, figs, prunes and then something more cardboardy and slightly tea-ish. A little more pepper too, but the palate is a little more easy-easy than the nose

timer Finish

medium long, clean, on figs and café latte. Not much ‘Banffness’ here
