It's a totally different world from the Boutique-y. We're in a garden of wild flowers with wax candles burning and all kinds of flinty, mineral notes peeping through. Notes of pollen, dried herbs such as chives, parsley and thyme. Some lemon oil, sorrel, white pepper, a lightly grassy olive oil. Totally beautiful, a whisky that feels 'confident'. With water: bracken, nettles, some ink and more citrus. The kind of tertiary complexities you just cannot ever recreate by throwing active wood at a distillate. Only refill wood and time can create this kind of profile
restaurant Palate
Perfect delivery. All on coal, lemon skins, minerals, a touch of ash, various oils and something like aged mead. Doesn't feel anything like 30 years old but at the same time it is not immature either. Just pure and brilliant in its precision and depth of flavour. You could quaff obscene quantities of this stuff! With water: the texture becomes oilier and there are more herbal notes. Little touches of aged yellow Chartreuse and a peppery watercress note
timer Finish
Long, lemony, peppery, waxy and glorious. A big flush of anise in the aftertaste
