Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
bright straw
air Nose
lemony waxes, beach sand and pebbles, sandalwood, flower honeys and some notes of orange marmalade and tiger balm. Sitting on the lighter but still distinctive side of the HP profile. Also, a lovely sense of freshness and brightness about this nose. With water: chalk, sandalwood, coastal flowers, lightly smoked sea salt and heather ales
restaurant Palate
indeed, a lighter, perhaps more modern style with less peat influence, but still a lot of mineral impressions and coastal notes. Mineral salts, light briny aspects, seaweed crackers, eucalyptus and elegant waxiness. Delicate threads of peat smoke woven down in the mix. With water: really on coastal freshness, saltiness and also a more defined and textured waxy character. The peat smoke is elevated nicely too
timer Finish
long, drying, salty, on camphor, caraway, miso, brine and dried herbs
