Tasting Notes
Colour
pale white wine
air Nose
naked, as expected! Arthur at James MacArthur seems to like these totally distillate-driven whiskies, and frankly, how could we be against that? What’s really amazing is that beyond the brutality and the roughness of this malt, there, I do find roses. Seriously, roses. Haleluja! But there’s also quite some dust, flour, gravel, cut cactus, wet concrete… So it’s not the fullest nose ever, but let’s go on… With water: damp papers in the basement
restaurant Palate
old style weirdness. In the old days, the indies used to bottle just any cask, provided it was ‘single malt’. So you had utter glories, and whacky ones as well. I’m afraid this one’s rather a whacky one, with a huge chalky side, notes of plastic, notes of the odd drinks the Coca-Cola Company makes out of lemons that were perfectly alright, and, well, more chalk. Now you could always intellectualise these whiskies, but frankly… With water: chalk in lemon and grass juice
timer Finish
same. Very grassy spirit
