Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
amber
air Nose
I feel the sherry and peat somewhat cancel each other out, but without causing any real issue. You need to give it time, but then the figs, raisins, and dates from the PX come through, followed by miso, umami, tobacco, and Maggi, leading eventually to a rather charming hint of smoked ham and mashed peas. It's a fun nose, even if we ‘naturally’ prefer the more crystalline Bowmores
restaurant Palate
really good, with cherries and dates, though somewhat anecdotal. Smoked chocolate, ham, then a growing sweet-and-savoury note—almost like African cuisine, which is excellent, by the way
timer Finish
medium length, more on raisins, PX, milk chocolate, and a touch of corn syrup. A faint hint of molasses
