Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

a leafy and herbal young Laphroaig, rather fino-ish. The usual medicinal notes are in the background (antiseptic, camphor) while there’s an obvious nuttiness (walnuts, walnut wine, almonds, flor…) There’s also quite some tar and earth, as well as big whiffs of iodine. With water: more of the same and sea air and graphite oil

restaurant Palate

rich, leathery and tobacco-like notes, with a huge peatiness, salmiak and tarry ‘stuff’ (old tar liqueur). Walnuts again. With water: becomes brinier, saltier, gentler as well… Some marzipan and smoked almonds

timer Finish

long (of course) and both almondy and briny. Lemon and salted fish in the aftertaste
