Tasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
a rather fragrant young Bowmore, with more heather honey and grenadine syrup than usual at first nosing, before it gets more ‘usual’ indeed, with quite some dry smoke, sea water and hints of white rhum agricole
restaurant Palate
an rather tangeriny start, sweet and pleasantly tart/citric, before it becomes saltier and brinier, with a peatiness that’s rather more peppery than usual. Quite some nutmeg
timer Finish
rather long, with more spices (cardamom spring to mind) and quite some marzipan. Salty aftertaste, with good support from the tangerines, but the after-aftertaste is very dry, chalky and ashy
