Tasting Notes
Colour
yellow/gold
air Nose
what’s funny and rather cool is that this is very much what you would think of as ‘Speyside’, just as the Lowland was very much ‘Lowland’. Not that I put much stock in regionality in Scotch whisky, but it’s funny how the concept of it re-enforces ideas about perception and flavour sometimes. Anyway, this is a tasting note Angus, not one of your overlong essays! Very grassy, buttery, cereal, quite a bit of olive oil, sunflower seeds, fresh breads and scones. With water: gets increasingly buttery now, slightly herbal too with some parsley and bay leaf. Very pleasant
restaurant Palate
sharp and grassy with rather a lot of citric acidity, but also many white and yellow flowers, meadow freshness, grass, nettles, plain cereals and sunflower oil. With water: obviously quite a young whisky, but it’s well made, rather old school distillate with these very punchy and aggressive cereal, grassy and natural sweetness notes
timer Finish
medium, very cereal, lightly herbal, buttery and more cooking oils
