Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

one or too steps above the 16 but the styles are very similar, although this 22 has got more herbal tea, chamomile, honeysuckle and such on top of the melon, plums, vanilla, honey and sea breeze. Lovely soft and pure nose. Also fresh hazelnuts and a little marzipan. Barley water

restaurant Palate

now we’re talking! It’s no gentle Laddie, and it’s even got a little too many pears and pineapples (youth), but otherwise it’s a rather perfect candied and toffee-ed Bruichladdich, with all the fresh fruits singing in the background. Baked apples and bananas, apricots and such. Touches of tea (breakfast), then lemon and a few drops of Cointreau. The American oak remains light and fresh, it’s no vanilla-and-ginger bomb at all

timer Finish

medium length, rather more on fresh oranges. Blood oranges. Less salt than in the 16 but there is a slight feeling of salt
