Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
it’s a relatively mild one, with something old style indeed, which goes well with the retro label. Such as a lighter peat and rather more tropical fruits, mango chutney, then more vanilla and hints of coconut and sawdust. Just hints! With water: oh yes, some lovely whiffs of fresh herbs, chives, lemongrass… And a little sheep dung again. Welcome to Islay!
restaurant Palate
it’s a drinkable Laphroaig. Don’t get me wrong, Laphroaig’s always drinkable, but this one’s a little easier, while retaining the smoky side, the citrus, the iodine and the smoke. Some sweeter oak behind all that? I find hints of grenadine. With water: very very good. But let me issue a warning, this is too drinkable
timer Finish
not the longest ever, but it’s got some great notes of apple peelings, green tobacco, tea… And lemon!
