Tasting Notes

Colour

orange amber

air Nose

nice nose, a bit oak-driven and closer to bourbon than to Scotch in style. Hints of pencil shavings and roasted flour, a faint farminess (clean cow stable, damp earth), some marzipan, clay or chalk, charcoal and then a little mead and honeydew. All that is surprisingly complex

restaurant Palate

this is different… Very different! Not really ‘whisky’, rather some kind of oak-aged herbal liqueur, Chartreuse, verbena… Very oily mouth feel. Then notes of cranberry juice, something like tamarind (?), bitter oranges, spearmint, coriander… What a strange decoction! The fact is that all this is very pleasant… Just not ‘whisky’

timer Finish

long, half-herbal, half-fruity. A lot of liquorice and peppermint in the aftertaste
