Tasting Notes

Colour

straw

air Nose

it’s definitely fruitier than the ‘2000s’ and closer to the grain, with more yeasty notes (not feinty), more lemon ad apples as well, more leather, more butter, more soot and more tar… And rather less peat. Sea water. In a certain way, it’s a little ‘dirtier’ and rawer but also a little less ‘commercial’. Curious about the palate…

restaurant Palate

rather bizarre… Starts rather well, peaty, maybe just a tad soapy (and with notes of lavender sweets)… But falls apart after less than one second, leaving a very weak middle with only touches of lemon drops and ink/paper. Strange…

timer Finish

medium long, very briny. Barley sugar. Rather bitter aftertaste
