Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
indeed, it’s quite Laphroaigish, even if more mineral and less expressive than the ‘very young’ OMC. Probably a little more maritime and flinty but less liquoricy and without these great notes of gentian. But it seems to be an enjoyable, pure peat monster
restaurant Palate
a beastly young Islayer, very wham-bam with lots of peat, apples, soft spices, something rooty and earthy plus liquorice. That’s all but it’s already quite enough! The finish is extremely long, on ‘smoked liquorice’ if that exists. Simple but flawless. 85 points . CRAZY WHISKY ADS - WHISKY AND SHIPS - Part 3 Top, left: Dewar's 1931 'Unchanged in a changing world.' Great 1930's design! Top, right: Johnnie Walker 1944 'Good work... Good whisky' Typical war time British advertising Bottom: Johnnie Walker 1948 'Time marches on! It makes me proud to think I've seen the paddle-boat become the 'Queen.' Like Clyde-built ships, I've grown in fame - The skill behind me's still the same.' Very interesting similarities with the Dewar's ad above. MUSIC – Recommended listening: Momus goes on with his clever songwriting and sound mixing... In 2005 he prepared bowls of Homemade Soup.m3 ... Very interesting. Do you, like me, enjoy Momus' work? Then there's also Shaftesbury avenue.mp3 and the very cool (but always beware the lyrics) I want you but I don't need you.mp3 . You should really buy some of Momus' music...
