air Nose
rather classic Bruichladdich this time, pretty gentler despite this medicinal oakiness. In fact, it’s pretty bandage-y. Whiffs of broken branches, also green tea. Even the melons are green. With water: iodine, Band-aids, and artisanal ointments made by some ex-London left-wing herbalist on the remotest Hebridean island there is
restaurant Palate
you feel the oak for sure, but it’s extremely well integrated, without any dull vanillaness, and would rather impart medicinal notes yet again, before more citrons (ah!) and indeed, blueberries would chime in. Touches of Fanta Lemon (with apologies to the bottlers, the distillers, and everyone on Islay and in Scotland). With water: do not add too much water! As often with very active wood, water destabilises the whisky a bit
timer Finish
rather long, and pretty herbal. Good mentholy oak from Radoux’
