Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
very expressive, to say the least. Starts extremely resinous, with lots of camphor, eucalyptus, bandages, getting then more and more medicinal. Then we have the marzipan, almond milk, and then all the sea 'stuff': fisherman's nest, shells, oysters... All that is finally rather delicate, not brutal at all. Really brilliant! Keeps developing on orgeat syrup, marzipan, whiffs of turpentine and even tar, dried seaweed... Natural mastic? Heck, let's say it: 'wow!'
restaurant Palate
an extraordinary attack, powerful, extremely thick and coating, on peat, rubber and bitter oranges. Hugely concentrated! Lots of mastic sweets, beeswax, cough syrup, quite some herbs (mostly chervil but also a little dill), getting then quite lemony but always resinous... So playful after all these years! The finish is long, waxy, almondy and peaty, with just traces of wine. A perfect match! 95 points . Ardbeg 29 yo 1967/1996 (52.3%, Signatory, cask #576, pale oloroso)
