Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
starts roughly like its bros but gets then nuttier (hazelnut oil). Wet newspaper, linseed oil, lemonade again, wet chalk, waxed paper. Zing! With water: now we get green apples, wet wool, kippers, roots, damp earth and ‘clean wet dog’. This is something. Maybe only 30% of all malt lovers will like this, but if they do they’ll truly adore it
restaurant Palate
big, big whisky. Grapefruit juice, lime, chillis. Sippable at almost 60% but let’s not take chances. With water: funny how it became a total beast with water. Something like concentrated smoked lemon juice? No roundness whatsoever and something that reminds me of old Clynelish (pre-Brora). Something slightly metallic. Sorry, it’s hard to explain
timer Finish
same, for a very long time. What’s more, its rather extreme purity will leave your mouth as fresh as a baby’s
