Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
this one's a little different at first, probably fresher, more on 'that walk in the woods', humus, then camphor, ointments, crushed fern leaves, also sea air… With water: awe! It's high-precision, rather restrained but just stunning Clynelish on the nose. 25-30 years is a perfect age
restaurant Palate
formidable! It's got both the freshness from the land and from the sea, and the paraffiny, lemony waxiness. I can't wait to add two drops of Vittel (our official water, Vitell, yeah I know the cheque's in the mail, you already told me last time). With water: all the expected compadres are coming out one after the other, wax, lemon, pepper, sourdough, chalk, angelica, pollen… Only the oak is a wee tad too present this time, I would say, making it 'only perfect' in my book. Nit-pickers of all nations, unite!
timer Finish
same developments. Lovely citrus, maybe just a tad more on skin than on flesh. Reminds me of… oh forget (JM, get out of this body!) Lovely honey and beeswax in the aftertaste, it's definitely 'perfect'
