Tasting Notes

Colour

straw

air Nose

a proper age, a very ‘refill’ cask according to the colour, and so a neater expression of the distillery. That is to say rather fat fruits, around bananas and small pineapples (some American oak still at play, perhaps), williams pears, late-season apples, and unexpected hints of bubblegum and marshmallows. Mind you, this is still ‘young’. With water: whiffs of fresh mushrooms and moss, always nice

restaurant Palate

bags of playful assorted fruits, jellies, jams, and sweets. The distillate makes me think of Aberlour (unsherried), with this ueberfruitiness that works so well. Lovely hints of Japanese macha, orange blossom water, pineapples again… It really is playful. With water: our beloved fruit salad topped with barley syrup

timer Finish

medium, fresh, fruity, are rather more cerealy than expected
