Tasting Notes

Colour

straw

air Nose

this one surprisingly rounder than the OB, with a little more fresh butter and vanilla cream as well as more minerals, and it's much more medicinal too, with also more apple peelings and walnut skin. On the other hand, it's rather less coastal, with less oysters and brine but such notes there are. Great anyway, just more a classic than the OB (which takes the biscuit ;-))

restaurant Palate

a very punchy, peat-packed Laphroaig, ashy and medicinal, with fresh apples and lemon in the background. And a lot of salt once again

timer Finish

long, wild, salty and cidery
