Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
it’s amusing how close to the youngster we are, with similar hints of tar and ‘good rubber’ at first nosing, and even these touches of sugarcane that were also hinting at true rum. After that, more lapsang souchong tea, marzipan, honeysuckle and lime tree teas, limoncello and plain seawater. It’s not a huge Caol Ila, but it’s got power and determination (excuse me?)
restaurant Palate
love this. Smoke: check, lemons: check, brine: check, almonds: check, ashes: check… And then a rather unusual blend of various herbal liqueurs with a lemony twist. No need to list those liqueurs but if I’d quote only one, I’d say genepy
timer Finish
long, wth more of those liqueurs, including something such as… salted absinth?
