Tasting Notes

Colour

dark straw

air Nose

really farmy, with lots of liquorice and roots. Gets very bourbonny (vanilla, oak). Some interesting perfumy notes, plus some dried fruits. The peat is then growing stronger, getting farmier and farmier

restaurant Palate

lots of candies at first, pear drops, English liquorice, parfait amour liquor. Gets sweeter and sweeter (plain white sugar). Lots of pepper then, and some peat… Sugar and pepper! Long finish, on lavender syrup and hay jelly, with a pinch of salt. The nose is absolutely great, but the palate is a little too much on ‘chemical’ sweets. 85 points . Bowmore 15 yo 1989/2004 (46%, Signatory for LMW, cask #6186, La Preceptorie finish) A heavy sweet wine from the South of France (Banyuls)
