Tasting Notes

Colour

full gold

air Nose

gentle wafts of menthol, clearly a more active cask, but balance hasn’t been compromised in the slightest. Some rubber and seaweed. With water: phew, we were worried, but while the wood is very present, the distillate holds its ground. At first, it feels like someone smoking a Kool menthol cigarette. Not in Europe though, apparently that’s been banned since 2020, so I’ve just learnt

restaurant Palate

creamy, courtesy of the cask. Beyond that, ashes, pepper, curry, oyster, lemon… With water: this is where it becomes more classic, even if the wood remains prominent. Brine, pepper, turmeric, ashes and so on

timer Finish

very long and even spicier
