Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
we’re back in this rather brittle, mineral and chiselled profile that’s really more ‘old school highlander’ than Speyside. Crushed aspirin, ink, lemon peel and grassy olive oil. However, in time, out comes yellow flowers, pollens and some cooked asparagus. Gets earthy, sooty and displays these rather lovely notes of earl grey tea and pink peppercorns. With water: lemongrass, soot, light ointments, wax paper and more inky notes
restaurant Palate
lemon infused baking soda, more of this strangely coastal dried seaweed note, the miso broth of a good ramen and buttery popcorn. A very curious mixed bag of flavours but also very entertaining. Cornflour, starchy linen, gooseberry, nettle tea and some petrol notes. With water: lemon tea, throat sweets, honeyed porridge and more chalkiness
timer Finish
long, slightly ashy, mineral, peppery, sooty and with a drying quality
