Tasting Notes

Colour

deep gold

air Nose

burnt wood and lavender lozenges, plus cassis jam, struck matches and touches of manure. Not sure, really not sure. In my book one of Bowmore’s main assets is the ‘chiselled purity’ of its spirit, but this is the exact opposite. A bit of a mess, in my opinion

restaurant Palate

a tad nicer but unbalanced, with more blackcurrants, Fanta, cloves gone mad, lavender indeed, and a whole pack of cheap sweets from Amazon’s

timer Finish

long but difficult, too leathery, with these green tannins. Proper ‘black’ tannins in the aftertaste
