Tasting Notes

Colour

white wine. So either the French wine was white, or the casks had been already filled with whisky. Hope so, frankly…

air Nose

pure barley goodness, fresh brioches and breads, cakes, the wee bakery in Bowmore (it's called the Islay Bakery, S.), flour, grist, oats… With water: same, an all-natural barleyganza this far

restaurant Palate

very good, tight, focused, sweet and all on ales, with touches of pepper, ginger and juniper that would tend to come to the front, perhaps is that the European oak from the French wine? Not too sure that's an obvious asset. With water: same feelings, a great drop that's a tad too spiced-up with European oak. Just a tad

timer Finish

rather long, with more cinnamon, nutmeg, juniper, clove, spiced bread…
