Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
amber with reddish hues
air Nose
an oakier and slightly more demonstrative version of the OB, with more sap, resins, mint and eucalyptus, even a little camphor. Yet it’s no wham-bam Bowmore at all. Goes on with more walnuts, dried mushrooms, cigar humidor, leather polish, smoked meat… The oak is rather of the ‘resinous kind’, which is to be found in many very old spirits that spent a lot of time in wood. Some liquorice. The whole is very dry despite the nice notes of orange marmalade that do come through after a looong time
restaurant Palate
very oaky and quite drying right from the start, with also these notes of oranges (or rather vitamin C effervescent tablets) that are a tad disturbing. Strong black tea
timer Finish
long but tannic and drying. Lemony
