Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

a feeling of smoked coffee blended with some soy sauce at first, which is not something I dislike mind you. Tends to become tarrier over time, with notes of engine oil and curry-and-mustard sauce. A peater that does not display a single iota of coastalness, how uncommon

restaurant Palate

the kind of tar/smoke + heavy fruits combo that only Ardmore may display at times. Or some batches of peated Benriach. IN short, someone's smoked peaches, distilled them, and then filled some active wood after having added some juniper berries

timer Finish

long but drying, raspy and gritty. More juniper and some artichoke in the aftertaste, quinaquina, then some welcome salty lemons
