Tasting Notes

Colour

dry white wine - don't believe the 'official' picture on the right

air Nose

lots of coffee and caramel, and lots of grainy notes too. Hot milk, porridge, müesli, mashed potatoes, almonds… Really close to a new make, but with less fruity notes. Some grassy, herbal notes, like green tea, freshly cut roots, green melon, green apple… alos quite briny, with a lot of vivacity!

restaurant Palate

sharp and bold, with lots of rooty aromas. Very herbal, with some lavender, smoked tea, cinnamon, aniseed, dried parsley… Strangely, it’s not fruity at all. It gets leafier and leafier, and then a little too bitter towards the long and very grassy finish. 80 points . Bruichladdich 10 yo (58.2%, James MacArthur Old Masters, mid-90’s)
