gold
air Nose
we were joking because we were knowing that this would be terrific. Very fat, doughy nose, full of sweet cereals, including many that are probably not even there, such as rye, buckwheat (I know), even rice… And wholegrain bread, bananas, greengages, drops of sake… Now what I'm not really getting this far is the peat. Was that 40ppm 'peat'? With water: now the smoke does come through, but rather timidly. We're not complaining, we enjoy this fermentary side, the sake, the beers and the wines, the miso soup, the chalkiness…
restaurant Palate
smoke, straight peat, gherkins, lime, oysters. It's much straighter, and smokier than on the nose. Two whiskies in one. With water: back to sweeter matters, including sweet rye and rice. I'm finding something Okinawan. But it's then moving to much saltier pastures…
timer Finish
indeed, this is salty, nuttier, with even a little fudge and pistachio brittle. Is that the sherry? The aftertaste is much peatier, strangely, with even some smoked bacon
