Tasting Notes

Colour

light gold

air Nose

it’s rather a rougher malt, with more farmy notes, a lot of grass, some porridge, damp oatcakes, some charcoal smoke that’s a little bizarre in this context… And whiffs of varnish. Not too sure about this one at this point… With water: even more grass. Quite un-Laddie

restaurant Palate

the varnishy notes grew even bigger, there’s a bitterness and even soapy touches on top of the usual fruits (melons/peaches). With water: same profile, although the soap was tamed. There wasn’t much anyway… Other than that, the grass rules. Un-Laddie indeed

timer Finish

medium length. A little lemon balm, which is nicer
