Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
wow! Right the point where the great fatty/phenolic rums (Caroni, Hampden, some Demeraras) rejoin malty territories. Serious, you could think this is one of them at very first nosing. Right, once the tangerines, the kippers and the straight peat smoke join in the dancing you cannot be mistaken anymore but still... Very great nose. With water: once again, wool and hay. Maybe one or two distinguished wet dogs (hello dogs)
restaurant Palate
we're extremely close to the Port Askaig, this one's just a little crisper and even more 'chiselled'. A little more medicinal too. Excellent. No, wait, it's very medicinal. With water: excellent, it's the phase when these peaters become rounder and more on complex phenolic notes, old garage, oils, petrol, greases
timer Finish
good length, with more salty liquorice coming out
