Tasting Notes
Colour
reddish coffee
air Nose
difference and similarities. You feel this is the same distillate in different clothes. Whereas the Bouquet is about an axis of freshness and depth, the Largiemeanoch is really about concentration and intensity. This is really pure sarsaparilla syrups, molten cola cubes, ancient tar liqueurs and simmering, intense coffee. Jellied peat, hot liquorice, red chilli and some kind of industrial antiseptic cut with brine. For all this muscle, swagger and clout, it is still a coiled and controlled whisky. There’s a lot of dichotomies about this whisky, but this is absolutely an asset not a flaw. With water: with the neat nose you feel the specificities and the individuality of the various components. Here though everything coagulates into a perfect cohesion. The most syrupy and dense whisky imaginable. Above all though, it is hauntingly, irrefutably beautiful
restaurant Palate
utterly sublime. Perfect sherry. Salty, meaty, pure, earthy, chocolatey, minty, leafy and dense with rancio. To a combination and cleanly purity that is scarce even in old school single malts of this era. You could spend hours picking our all these variations of themes of meatiness, earthiness, medicine, peat, smoke, spice and minerals. Like the Bouquet, it swiftly confronts you with the limits of your own abilities. With water: as on the nose, all these tertiary tangents align and become streamlined and more singular. The sense of harmony, concentration and cohesion is totally sublime
timer Finish
raw, sweet, smoky, terrifyingly deep, haunting and totally endless. The darkest of nights in a glass
