Tasting Notes

Colour

pale gold

air Nose

I don’t know if this is the cask, but this is different. More on fresh butter at first nosing, more on wet stones, flints and chalk as well, maybe a bit more ‘narrow’ in fact. Wet wool and apple peelings. Less ‘coastal’ elements, but it’s still excellent whisky of course

restaurant Palate

good attack, rather nervous, smoky and resinous with notes of marzipan and salted toffee. Then peppered apple pie, salted butter and ‘peat’... This isn’t overly complex but this is very assertive

timer Finish

long, with a little more candy sugar
