Tasting Notes

Colour

pale white wine

air Nose

sweet Vishnu, indeed this is very smoky, and distinctly sooty! There is some coal and graphite, scoria, plaster, clay, there are kippers as well, there’s a touch of lime, and I’m also finding seaweed and oysters. As far as fruits are concerned, perhaps one slice of green apple in addition to lime? Indeed this baby’s quite ‘green’

restaurant Palate

it’s less smoky this time, but totally northern Highlands, sharp, sooty, extremely mineral, and quite herbal at that. So it’s not a very easy old HP, it’s even got spikes and bumps, but the way it challenges you is most admirable. Gets then much more lemony and peppery, which not any less challenging. Green pepper, salt, a feeling of ‘the driest margarita’

timer Finish

long, very mineral and very waxy. This well-known feeling of drinking liquid plasticine. Salt, pepper, ginger tonic and lemon in the aftertaste
