straw
air Nose
it's a fruit salad, more or less, with just a little sunflower oil and some barley water. And this works quite brilliantly! No I won't list all fruits, but I could tell you that there's also a little paraffin coming out after five minutes, together with some green tealeaves. Becomes drier, leafier, grassier and waxier over time. The fruits are gone after ten minutes, but I love waxes and oils in whisky, so
restaurant Palate
perfect... for me. If you don't like waxy, grassy, sharpish palates, you may continue your way ;-) but if you do and give this baby a little time, you'll be rewarded with limes and grapefruits as well as touches of salt and 'extreme' green tea, Japanese style. What a distillate!
timer Finish
long and extremely well chiselled. Agreed, that also means 'narrow', but high definition can also be an asset
