Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
very typically ex-bourbon Bruichladdich, creamy, fruity, perfectly balanced, fresh, and yet rich. You cannot not mention overripe apples, melons, peaches, acacia and sunflower honeys, and just a tiny touch of smoke, not sure whether those early batches were still ‘a bit peaty like 8ppm’ or not. With water: earth coming out, just what we were expecting. Perfect
restaurant Palate
absolutely perfect indeed. Tense, fruity, citrusy, with also the usual garden fruits, all this honey, these small herbal teas (rather chamomile and thyme), and, well quite some verticalness. Just a tiny wee touch of coconut, nothing awkward at all. With water: not one wrong move! Excellent drop
timer Finish
medium, tight and yet rich, creamy, with a superb fruitiness. High-precision work. Some violet sweets in the aftertaste, which always works in my book
