Tasting Notes

Colour

white wine

air Nose

it’s a rather gristy and smoky one. Which means close to the raw ingredients with sourdough, carbolic acidity, fermenting wash, lemon juice, a freshly shucked oyster and some tar. Pure, plain and pretty unequivocally Caol Ila

restaurant Palate

extremely salty on arrival. Pure seawater, rock pool, wet seaweed, drops of iodine and malt vinegar. Pickled onions from a chip shop dipped in squid ink. There’s also a rather brittle peat and these typical notes of wood ash and lemon juice

timer Finish

long, very smoky and getting these wee notes of black olive, hot rubber, wood embers and black pepper. Indeed, gets rather fatter, oilier and heavier in the finish
