Tasting Notes

Colour

straw

air Nose

big phat peat indeed and a profile that’s not without remind us of some of the official 10 CSs. You know, that superb combination of smoke and ashes with touches of passion fruits and mangos. Behind all that: wet dogs of course (apologies, dogs), antiseptic and eucalyptus. Classic. No water needed it seems

restaurant Palate

perfect young Laphroaig, nervous, wonderfully sharp, ‘chiselled’, lemony, smoky (not kidding) and only mildly medicinal. Simple pleasures. Oh, and a super-big peat

timer Finish

long, on the same flavours. A little gentian in the aftertaste and bags of ashes
