Tasting Notes

Colour

light gold

air Nose

it’s utterly mad how this smells like ‘home’. Brand new rubber boots, fresh trainers, low tide on a Hebridean shore, turpentine, engine oil, whelks, preserved lemons, camphor, cough syrup, hints of retsina… These vintages were the most beautiful ever known on Islay, and perhaps even in Scotland

restaurant Palate

such remarkable compactness, coherence and pedigree. Let’s say preserved lemon smoked with rubber, augmented by coal tar, seawater, wakame and tar liqueur. It’s simply exceptional and we rather expected that

timer Finish

long, with the proverbial lapsang souchong and ever that majestic rubber, with a marmalade curiously salty and camphory, and smoked almonds
