Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
there is a kind of herbal greasiness at first. Heather smoke, coal tar soap, sea water and runny honey. A light black olive note, like black olive bread perhaps, then salty porridge, oatmeal and crushed aspirin. There’s a dusty lemon powder and damp leafy aspect that comes in time. With water: becomes rather more cereal, malty and gristy. Lots of salty porridge, white fish, bonfire ash and sooty qualities
restaurant Palate
this same greasiness that also includes boiler smoke, peppered mackerel and a light tarriness. Rather a big HP. More briny qualities, lanolin and a little hot mustard. These more classical heather and honey qualities come in time but they are slightly knocked out of whack by these bigger salty and medical aspects. With water: it reaches more of an equilibrium while swimming. These more classical aspects of dried herbs, medicines, citrus fruits, runny honey and soft peats all seem to reach an agreement
timer Finish
long, with some rather lemony and soft smokiness. Hay loft, green peppercorn, light antiseptic and salty flatbread
