Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
full gold
air Nose
a nose that's extremely 'sweet', jammy, as if they would have used sherry plus rechar. A lot of beeswax and manuka honey (boy that got expensive), toasted oak, some caraway liqueur or aquavit, a small gamey side (grouse), some Spanish ham, cigarette tobacco, muscovado, marmalade, plus, as I had already noticed last time in 2017 (2017! Scandal!), echoes of Lagavulin 16. Must be a very specific kind of peat + sherry combination
restaurant Palate
a great batch, a great whisky, even if this amontillado-type of dryness might not be for strictly everyone. Stunning smoked toffee, milk jam, butterscotch, pipe tobacco, spicy beef soup, bitter oranges…
timer Finish
only the finish is a tad drying. Wonderful salty, meaty aftertaste though. Biltong. Coriander leaves, picante pizza oil, maraschino (really, there's something Italian to this one)
