Tasting Notes

Colour

straw

air Nose

ah yes, it’s one of those naked, smoky ones! Mineral, flinty, peaty, oily, greasy and very ‘old style’, with that ‘old-Clynelishness’ that’s sometimes to be found in these HPs. Lovable (I think). With water: more pepper and even myrtle

restaurant Palate

wonderful straight HP, austere, zesty, mineral, herbal, greatly bitter (Campari – I’m not saying this because the bottler is Italian, eh!), becoming more lemony and waxy after a while. It’s even a little prickly/fizzy, a feeling that maybe not everyone will like but I do. With water: more or less the same plus more sweetness. Lemon curd

timer Finish

long, peppery, still a tad fizzy (Schweppes grapefruit – do you also have these commercials with Nicole Kidman or Uma Thurman?)
