Tasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
every time I'm trying Torabhaig – granted, we haven't tried hundreds – the word 'crystalline' springs to mind. This is pure seawater blended with lime juice, granny smith juice, a small bottle of tincture of iodine, and the waters of a dozen oysters. That's all. With water: a lot of fern-type notes, then peppered clams and winkles and whelks and cockles. And a good glass of petroly Alsatian riesling
restaurant Palate
very punchy, full of brine, seawater, chilli (but not of the XXX-end-of-the-world kind) and ashes. Ultra-vertical and really shock-full of ashes of all kinds. With water: dazzling lemons and smoked and salted almonds. I revere smoked almonds, but they are getting rarer and rarer where I live. Actually, it is a scandal
timer Finish
long, pure, salty and lemony. Those granny smith apples are back in the aftertaste
