Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
oils (sunflower, grape pips) and fat seashells (whelks), on doughs and vanilla fudge, and brioche, croissants and stuff. Smoked almonds ruling the whole shebang. With water: ultra-classic Bowmore, reminding us of those times when they were rolling the barrels in the loch, from the distillery to the puffers. We always need a nice story
restaurant Palate
the nose was fat while this palate is tight, green, resinous and rather peppery. Lemon zests. Huge contrast. With water: indeed it's rather a resinous one, I'm reminded of bee propolis. Which, incidentally, raises your immunity, fights all variants of Covid, and even cures the worst tropical diseases. Prices on request (gee…)
timer Finish
rather long, and indeed rather on propolis, pine resin, almonds, zests and all that. The everlasting salty and resinous aftertaste is fab
