Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

great young spirit aged/flavoured in active wood. That doesn’t work often (see some recent NAS offerings by Islay brands), but when it works, it can be great. Bicycle inner tubes, a pack of fudge, white chocolate, smoked tea. The aromas don’t stay apart, and that’s why it works by the way. Despite the pencil shavings. With water: brand new wellies, carbon paper, rubber bands, that’s all. An acquired taste, as they say

restaurant Palate

disappointingly excellent. Perfect combination, with lemon fudge and salted liquorice, plus double-smoked lapsang souchong. Of course they do make that. With water: more of the same. Smoked lemon-flavoured fudge

timer Finish

long, on the same flavours
