Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

these whiskies were much meatier, more savoury, more on chicken soup and tofu-ed miso than the current offerings. I don't think that's only because of OBE. What's particularly wonderful is all the mint, also other aromatic herbs, camphor, sandalwood, plus the expected metal polish and just soot. Wonderbar (that's Anglo-German language). With water: tantalising beehive-y notes, high-class old Sauternes, some resinous smoke (burning eucalyptus), then bouillon with marrow quenelles, mashed chickpeas, just menthol… Wow wow wow!

restaurant Palate

totally amazing, extremely rich, complex, full of dried and crystallised fruits (to the brim!) with an exotic smokiness and notes of earthy cognac. Superlative, I would have said old 1960s Springbank. Incredible, please call the Anti-Maltoporn Brigade! With water: it just adores water. I believe I'm running out of superlatives

timer Finish

soups, dried figs, truffles, various juices, old liqueurs, ambrosia (I would guess), what a show!
