straw
air Nose
a naked Linkwood again, but this time it’s the cleanest and most elegant Linkwoody profile. Maybe these roses yet again, then quite some barley sugar, almonds, ‘good’ putty (I’ve seen some friends using putty in a negative way while I like it a lot – have to be careful) and the faintest hints of smoke. With water: some peat comes out, together with mint, grass and eucalyptus. Ginger tonic. Having said that, the other aromas have vanished
restaurant Palate
sweet and rounded at first sips, and then we have a true peat blast. Okay, no blast but the peat is very vivid now. Having said that, it’s all pretty grassy and narrow, and it’s soon to drop. Aw. Too bad because there were also pleasant mentholated notes. With water: mildly peaty and sweet. Candy sugar
timer Finish
rather short. Peat and caramel
