Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
this wonderfully thick and bright waxiness, a particular fusion of honeys, flower nectars and waxy notes that seems to arise in 90s Clynelish at this age. There's also some sweet ales and fresh breads in the background, along with sweeter herbal cough medicine notes. Beautiful! With water: more waxes but also hints of aged Sauternes, tinned pineapple and yellow Chartreuse
restaurant Palate
excellent arrival, nicely powerful and peppery, with a big waxy vibe, some nicely sharp and controlled exotic fruit flavours centering around mango and pineapple, then herbal and fruit teas and more combinations of waxes and cough medicines. With water: getting a little mentholated, with slightly minty tobacco, hessian, olive oil, camphor and tea tree oil. Also more medicinal things like tiger balm and a really gloopy, textural waxiness. This one develops brilliantly with water!
timer Finish
long, more herbal, more medicinal and very wonderfully heathery with sandalwood, mead and big camphor vibes in the aftertaste
