Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
I don’t believe I’ve ever nosed a whisky so deeply rooted in smoked butter. All the rage in Michelin-starred kitchens these days. Then a medley of root vegetables—those long-forgotten sorts that are now all the rage again too, thanks to those very same chefs. In short, it’s distinctive. With water: a burst of lime tidies the whole thing up nicely
restaurant Palate
this is very different, which means it’s good. That’s where I’ve landed—so many malts are mind-numbingly samey these days (largely due to everyone using the same bl**dy casks). Liquorice, rubber, hawthorn and linden tea (and a lot of it) … With water: smoked pear, of all things!
timer Finish
long, a touch more austere, with more ashes and a final whiff of dill-cured smoked salmon. Fitting really—smoking salmon with beech is quite the standard, isn’t it?
