Tasting Notes

Colour

white wine

air Nose

by Jove and Vishnu, this is even nicer. Which, in my book, means more typically Clynelish. What I’m finding this time is some smoke, which was literally absent from the others. More organic elements as well, touches of tofu, miso, otherwise paraffin and chalk, zests… And just minimal amounts of pears. With water: baker’s yeast, fresh croissants

restaurant Palate

we’re extremely close to cask #700039. That would be, what, three minutes in the filling store? This time it’s the citrus that’s a tad more dominant, for whatever reasons, and I’m not even sure about that. With water: indeed, more waxy citrus and seawater. But comparing whiskies that are this close can drive you loco loco

timer Finish

long, perhaps a little rougher. More peppery for sure
