Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

starts on bold notes of green walnut and cider apples, with also hints of shoe polish and warm butter, and develops more on linseed oil, dried apricots and mangos as well as hints of old leather and Virginia tobacco. Gets more resinous after that (pine needles, retsina). Also notes of vines and fir cone ash, used matches... Very elegant and complex, not a wham-bam 1974 Ardbeg

restaurant Palate

starts unexpectedly soft (vanilla, buttered fudge) but gets then very peppery. ‘Explodes’ on ginseng, gentian roots tea and dried mushrooms, with a beautiful bitterness

timer Finish

medium to long, more on oily peat and ashes, with touches of dark chocolate and quite some salt
