Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
extremely unusual, starting on bold notes of cocoa and tinned sardines. I’m not joking. Then there’s quite some vanilla, herbal tea (more like camomile), yoghurt and lemon juice. Very far from displaying the Blasda’s cleanliness on the nose, and certainly much less peaty. Gets finally more ‘Ardbeg’, with more maritime notes (not only sardines, yeah, yeah), a little tar and more green apples than in the Blasda. A tad bizarre, sort of ‘undecided’. Whiffs of menthol do come through after a few minutes
restaurant Palate
good body and good mouth feel, creamy and lemony but with also some weird notes of C-vitamin tablets, Sprite, wood tannins… Not my cup of malt at all. Fast forward…
timer Finish
long but prickly and lemony. Ginger ale, gin fizz
