Tasting Notes

Colour

white wine

air Nose

this one has got rather more straight smoke as well as these touches of torrefaction/coffee that were already in cask #5920 by MoS. Then more grass and grapefruits. A very sharp version, very nervous and quite beautiful. With water: became extremely briny, with also quite some dry white wine and a little iron (tin box)

restaurant Palate

ultra-classic briny, lemony, peaty and rather more medicinal than the others. Archetypical, as they say. With water: excellent. Salted and smoked lemon juice

timer Finish

long, very salty. Brine
