Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
same territories only even more pronounced. Cut grass, sunflower oil, sheep wool, aspirin, lemon curd, lime pith, dried banana chips, melon, fresh fabrics, coconut water and plain oatcakes. Purity and freshness are really the foundational qualities here. With water: plain breakfast cereals, freshly kilned malt, wort, moss and smooshed dandelions
restaurant Palate
barley eau de vie mixed with young calvados. These notes of light mead, cider apples, pear cordial and elderflower champagne all mix together very nicely. Some tonic water, bitter lemon, more very light medical notes such as aspirin, then putty, marjoram and hawthorn. With water: going into herbal liqueur territory now with big notes of lemon thyme, bay leaf, parsley and sage. Some bitter herbal ointments, sheep wool, lemon infused olive oil and more punchy grassy notes. It’s actually becoming quite austere, not in a bad way but just rather punchy, brittle and uncompromising. From all the bottlings I’ve tasted so far I would argue that Daftmill is a rewarding but not an ‘easy’ whisky. It demands time and attention. Mind you, that’s more than can be said for some other new whiskies - which demand nothing
timer Finish
quite long and still with a lot of quinine, herbs, bitter lemon peel, cooking oils, plain cereals, sourdough and white pepper
