Tasting Notes

straw
air Nose
it’s a whispering Ardbeg, with these faint cardboardy notes that can often be found in old bottlings of some Islayers when they were bottled at low strength, but other than that it whispers well. The peat is discreet, then we have notes of ‘a plate of fresh oysters on a lot of wrack’ and finally a combination of wood ashes and coal smoke, with just a little lemon juice on top of it as well as a little putty and plasticine. Again, it whispers quite low so I’m curious about the palate
restaurant Palate
greatest of news, it’s not tired, very, very salty in the attack, then developing on a mild smokiness combined with earthy notes and an expected combination of liquorice, lemon and pepper plus a rather typical sootiness. No drop at any moment
timer Finish
rather long, even more on salty liquorice and always that sootiness. Also a little olive oil
