Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

a very leafy one, very grassy, on apple peel and peach leaves, with some mint and some smoke, some linseed oil, some plasticine, even ointments… It was a bigger and drier spirit, probably too austere by today's standards. The palate will tell us more…

restaurant Palate

most certainly one of good ones, much more 'old Highlands', salty, sooty, waxy, leafy indeed, with something medicinal, some seashells (we're often mentioning whelks), licking rocks, with a drop of seawater, some mint again, a drop of cough syrup, green walnuts, more apple peel, bone-dry artisanal cider…

timer Finish

pretty long given the low strength, on a similar combination. Awesome salty aftertaste
