Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

the tropical fruits are doing the talking at first nosing (fresh pineapples), and then there’s quite a lot of limoncello and vanilla, and only a moderate brininess. Fresh oak starting to talk very loudly after ten seconds, although I wouldn’t call this baby ‘planky’. With water: hints of… our beloved wet dogs, seawater, cold tea, cinnamon…

restaurant Palate

starts very creamy, very lemony, very peaty (for Bowmore) and very briny, but once again, the oak starts to feel a little more than I would have liked – but that’s me, obviously. Bags and bags of pepper after a short while. With water: very fine, but the oak’s tannicity got even more obvious

timer Finish

quite long, with a little aniseed and menthol, which I enjoy
