Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
Light gold
air Nose
A initially punchy nose full of bandages, elastoplasts, ointment and a little tar and rope. Some seawater, gravel, smoked sea salt, brine and kelp. A real elegant mixture of medicine and coastal aspects. The peat is typically rather earthy, dirty and organic. A tad simplistic but totally marvellous
restaurant Palate
a bulldozer! Licking the inside of a kiln flue. A huge fug of earthy, blue peat smoke. Then smoked oysters, dried seaweed, boiler shed, motor oil, tar, rope, kreel net and some cow stable and dung (don’t eat a lot of dung I should add). The medicine is drying and tertiary with these notes of iodine and TCP. Some sheep wool, wet rocks and gravel. Some very delicate notes of mint and jasmine
timer Finish
Long and again very dry, earthy and full of fragrant peat smoke, herbs, some medicine, some minerals and a deep, bass like wood smokiness
