Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

rather drier at first, and then more honeyed, but it’s still got quite a lot of grass and wee bits of rusty iron. Pinesap, honeydew, walnuts, plum eau-de-vie, turmeric, cinchona, ginger… In fact I think it’s less rounded and floral/honeyed than earlier batches

restaurant Palate

firm, assertive, with some grapefruit marmalade, touches of fennel or celery, fir honey, a little bit of smoked malt, cinnamon rolls, a few raisins, Seville oranges, caraway, some kind of smoked toffee… I find this very good and very ‘HP’. Solid body at just 43% vol

timer Finish

medium, balanced, delicately smoky and honeyed. Is that really heather honey in the aftertaste? Oranges for sure
