Tasting Notes
Colour
pale white wine
air Nose
this is different again, an extremely minimal cask really thrusts the distillate into the light. Lemon skins, pear drops, wax paper, ink, chalk, porridge, very light honey and hessian. It’s a profile that nods more towards old style highland whisky than a classical Glenfarclas profile. Very cool! Hints of paraffin and old tool boxes. With water: lemon balm, blossom, fresh linen bitter ales
restaurant Palate
extremely grassy, mineral and chalky. Lots of fatty olive oil, mustard powder, sunflower seeds and something like caraway. Quite extreme really. With water: muesli, oatcakes, rice crackers and even something a bit coastal, like dried seaweed. Slightly crazy stuff
timer Finish
long, earthy, sooty and mineral with these stony and flinty edges. Some green pepper as well
