Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
smells obviously young, with the yeasty/milky side of baby whiskies still dominating the whole at first nosing, but also the trademark ‘peaty coastality’ (we’re never short of barbarisms, are we?) that’s a bit shy for a while but that grows much more obvious after that. Heady notes of lit matches, then flints, fresh oysters, fresh almonds, wet wool and limejuice. A little ‘virtual’ at such young age but “has great potential”, as they say at masterclasses. Doesn’t seem to need water so let’s just not do it
restaurant Palate
rather explosive and much more on salted liquorice at the attack. Salmiac. Goes on with salted liquorice... Keeps developing on all kinds of liquorices and ends up in... Salted liquorice. Okay, and cough syrup, lemon marmalade and pine tree sap
timer Finish
more salted liquorice for a very long time
