Tasting Notes

Colour

amber

air Nose

very dry and very chocolaty, with also nice touches of metal polish and cherry stems. Then more fresh mint, maybe chives, fresh mushrooms and a little seafood. Whelks? All that is almost as fresh as the new ten despite the heavier sherriness. With water: becomes more medicinal, quite curiously. Antiseptic? Also more dry sherry, walnuts…

restaurant Palate

very nice attack, raisiny and lemony but then there are a few slightly offbeat notes in my opinion, such as some very strong liquorice and maybe notes of rotting oranges. Also this strange combination of bacon and lemon squash… With water: became a little straighter but it’s still slightly strange, although it’s very good whisky. More raisins and dried figs

timer Finish

long, slightly dusty, but also with some great notes of heather honey
