Tasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
the very high ethanol rather blocks it I would say. Cocoa powder and oiled cardboard or something? Clearly some olive brine too, which is a good sign... With water: there, sheep’s wool, damp plaster and chalk, sourdough, porridge, fresh paint, carbolineum…
restaurant Palate
very sweet, almost all on wine gums and marshmallows. Lemon drops. This cannot be… With water: indeed it was a false impression, this is a classic smoky and ashy Caol Ila, perhaps a notch sweeter than usual indeed (sherry hogshead?) but otherwise peppery and zesty
timer Finish
long, certainly a little bonbony, with a little vanilla beneath the grassier smoke
