Tasting Notes

Colour

pale gold

air Nose

and yet a different profile. This one is more on herbs, mint, dill, fennel… It’s also peatier than the other ones, more coastal as well, earthier… In short, more from the countryside, less for big cities. Oh, forget about that. A little medicinal as well. With water: more of all that, esp. the earthiness

restaurant Palate

once again it’s more phenolic than the other ones, more ‘northern Highlands’ in a certain way. Flints, smoke, grass, herbal liqueurs, liquorice wood, Chartreuse… Very nice, I think. Smoked cough syrup. With water: zesty, lemony, nervous, lovely. And always quite some smoke for HP

timer Finish

long, clean, fresh, citrusy, herbal and smoky. What’s not to like? Greatly medicinal and mentholated aftertaste
