Tasting Notes

Colour

full gold

air Nose

it is. Typical gently pumped-up smoky and spicy/fruity young peat bomb. Citrons, pink pepper, vanilla, mango chutney, ginger, other wood spices… Feels very modern, not that there’s anything wrong with that. With water: grist and dough

restaurant Palate

rich and creamy, spicy, with a little espresso (or rather ristretto) plus putty and plasticine, limoncello, bitters, marzipan, caramel… I suppose the cask was heavily charred, or small, or both. With water: just very good, well-mastered modern cooking. Maple syrup, touch of rum, gingery spices, oranges, and a lot of smoke. Duncan Taylor at the helm?

timer Finish

long modern gingery and jammy
