Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

a myriad of various wood polishes, waxes, tinned peaches, camphor, cough medicines, natural tar extract, lanolin and many crystalised fruits. A stupendous concoction of waxes, tinctures, embrocations, old dessert wines and earthen floored cellars. Plenty of notes of waxed canvas, putty, hessian and lamp oil. Just brilliant

restaurant Palate

cough syrups, herbal extracts, many ointments, peppery waxes, carbon paper, old inkwells, orange oils, tarragon, old chartreuse, fir liqueur, olive oil and mead. Pretty emblematic old school Highland Park, totally thrilling old malt whisky with a big mouth feel for 46%. Many more fruit extracts, syrups and peels. In time there’s rather a lot of peat as well, warm, herbal, earthy peat along with some metal polish and beeswax

timer Finish

long, earthy, herbal, slightly salty, notes of orange bitters, peat, fruit resins and lemon jelly
