Tasting Notes

Colour

bright gold

air Nose

creamy peat smoke, natural tar, vanilla cream, TCP, wet hessian, sheep wool and camphor. A wonderfully thick and expressive nose that gives a strong impression of texture. With water: wet rocks, fabric, chalk, bonfire embers and more TCP. Also dried heather flowers and pine resin

restaurant Palate

the cask was pretty active here, lots of initial wood spice, paprika, pink peppercorn, capers in brine, olives in pickling juices, tar, embrocations, iodine and cough sweets. Reminiscent of some older batches of the OB 10yo Cask Strength. With water: drier with water now, more towards pure sea salt, brine, salted liquorice, more natural tar, hessian and smoked olive oils

timer Finish

long, very salty, sharp, almost acridly smoky and briny
