Tasting Notes

Colour

pale straw

air Nose

oh, this is a little unexpected, something almost peaty, a grassy, dry and slightly turfy style of peat, along with some roasted turnips, old copper coins and impressions of old, slightly dried out herbal liqueurs - which we find more commonly in older Scottish whiskies than Irish I would say. Perhaps the nose is a little tired, or oxidised? It's hard to say where some of these aromas come from, or what remains of how it would have presented originally. I rather like it, I have to say

restaurant Palate

indeed, peat! Dry, earthy, sooty and very old school peat flavour, with a little sense of grain whisky in the background too, like old bruised green apples and their peelings, then rather a lot of camphor, vegetable stock and wet grains. In time also some old oily toolbox rags and impressions of hessian and more copper coins. Blind you might easily have said an extremely old Scottish blend from the same sort of era, the presence of peat and the slightly heavier profile all lean in that direction, rather than, say, an old pure pot still character

timer Finish

medium, on slightly medicinal and faded herbal notes, more wet cereals, bouillon, camphor and metal polish
