Tasting Notes

Colour

pale white wine

air Nose

feels like a higher octane, more intense version of the DL 1985. It’s more about purity, power and precision here, a lot of petrol and mineral notes, pure seawater, malt vinegar, cider apple and oily sheep wool. With water: seawater, smoked olive oil and lemon juice in close harmony

restaurant Palate

petrol, indeed. Purity to the point of simplicity, but it’s still terrific distillate so you can’t really argue too much. Lemon juice, plaster, oysters, fish sauce, some tar and raw, grizzly peat smoke. With water: really a powerful Laphroaig, extremely rugged, farmy, peaty, tarry and fat! With a lot of hessian, camphor, wool and plaster notes

timer Finish

long, drying, oily, salty, tarry, some dry roast peanuts of all things, and an encroaching umami / Maggi vibe
