Tasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
my, this session starts well! A crystal-clean, hyper-Bowmorean Bowmore, with everything that’s needed well in place. Peat smoke, very clean, sea air, a little vanilla cake, some seaweed, some lemon and then we’re back on peat smoke. Or when simplicity’s an asset. With water: becomes a notch farmier (hay) and more vegetal. There’s also more brine (with fish inside, hehe)
restaurant Palate
perfect. Very peaty and salty, all that being coated with some kind of white chocolate flavoured with tropical fruits, especially maracuja. More walnuts after that, manzanilla (I guess it’s the saltiness that gives you this feeling, this is obviously no manzanilla cask). With water: a little rounder and sweeter. And indeed there’s a little maracuja
timer Finish
long and fruitier, which is a little unusual in finishes
