Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
we’re already in front of something more spirity and maybe a tad more medicinal than the average Caol Ila, with whiffs of antiseptic and tincture of iodine. Those medicinal notes grow bigger and bigger actually, let’s see what happens with the addition of a little water. With water: not much changes, it just gets a tad more mineral and nutty, but the medicinal side remains
restaurant Palate
punchy, very good, clean, peaty and very medicinal once again. Gentian eau-de-vie. Very faint notes of strawberry bubblegum and quite some salt. With water: no more bubblegum, rather more salt, walnuts and indeed, clams (or queen scallops, as you like)
timer Finish
rather long, with its medicinal side still there. Bitter almonds
