Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
it is a very medicinal Bowmore, full of ointments, camphor, notes of bandages, old cough syrup … for starters! Then more classic brine, ashes, lit cigar, tar and pine smoke. Boy scouts' campfire. With water: some oak spices popping out, some caraway (aquavit) and preserved vine peaches. Very nice nose
restaurant Palate
a little heavy this time, and a little too much on raspberries for me. It's true that I haven't even checked the cask-bill here. Port? Sweet sherry? We'll check that later… Some dissonances, tar and red berries, pomegranates, poppy jelly… With water: it's almost as if they had tried to recreate the style of the 1980s (Bowmore's, not Aston's), with some violet liqueur, touches of blood oranges, a little candy sugar…
timer Finish
medium, still sweet and jammy. More raspberries, cassis…
