Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

this is more polished, rounder than both Linkwoods. It’s all on butterscotch, maple syrup, earl grey tea and vanilla, with some apple peelings in the background as well as a little varnish and bubblegum (just a little). With water: a beautiful earthiness. Moss, humus, damp pinecones and needles…

restaurant Palate

high quality American oak. Vanilla and various stewed fruits, redcurrants, a little aniseed, bitter oranges, honey, crispy cereals. Excellent body, its not too hot at almost 60% vol. Also nice touches of rye coming through (from the cask’s previous content? Would that be possible?) With water: creamy, extremely well balanced. Quality white oak speaking

timer Finish

long and fruity, with a great spiciness in the aftertaste (mix for mulled wine). Gingerbread and touches of wasabi
