Tasting Notes

Colour

light amber

air Nose

a beautiful mixture of sea air, light caramel and fresh vanilla. Hazelnuts, oysters, cider apples… A bonfire on the beach (now I’m talking like the Scotch Malt Whisky Society!) Very subtle, very delicate… Subtler than the usual Ardbegs. A thrill! Again some notes of Werther’s Originals

restaurant Palate

rather nervous, on pine syrup, tar liquor, burnt herbs… Some rubbery notes. Grilled Provence herbs, strong liquorice candies… Again it’s not overly complex on the palate, but very compact and satisfying (but not for newcomers, even if that sounds a bit selfish). 92 points .
