Tasting Notes

Colour

white wine. Good news already

air Nose

I could keep this short and just write ‘yes’, but I’ll still mention seaweed, limey smoke, beach sand, iodine, grass smoke (garden bonfire) and oysters. Loch Gruinart oysters, of course

restaurant Palate

but-it-is-totally-mezcaly. It’s even agave-y (kind of the same thing, S.) Smoked fish and olives, plus a thin coating made with custard and light honey. That’s the barrel speaking out

timer Finish

rather long, super clean, maritime, smoky, seaweedy, mezcaly… Some would call it a fishermans’s dram. A Mexican fisherman?
