Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
coffee with bronze hues
air Nose
more metal polish than in metal polish. There was one that we used on our bikes and that was called Glanzol. Then the thickest sweetened oyster sauce, Bulldog sauce, PX blended with used engine oil, and rotting damsons. Crazy stuff but it is not a first at Bowmore's. With water: huge notes of walnut stain, then chicken broth, chives, sherry vinegar, walnut wine… Pretty spectacular and while it's clearly 'too much', I kind of enjoy this
restaurant Palate
as we were expecting, some chocolate sauce, something between balsamic vinegar (it is vinegary) and sour cherry juice, a very unusual kind of tar (coal tar plus?) and some pickled fruits, perhaps plums, certainly little onions, onion soup, brown sauce… With water: don't add any, it would go in all directions. Onion soup and chocolate, anyone? Come on, 56.9 only equals 100 proof, water is unnecessary here
timer Finish
long, salty, tarry, soupy, bitter, peppery, ultra-leafy, muddled
