Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
deep gold, so in theory, more cask influence
air Nose
walnuts, diesel oil, carbon paper, charcoal, leather, cured ham, brownies, raw chocolate, ink, soot, nice sulphur. Could be that there’s some sherry in there. With water: lovely pipe tobacco and ashes. One of the loveliest noses for a sherried ‘lish, in my opinion, with no clashes this time. But things may change on your palate…
restaurant Palate
thick and oily arrival, with really a lot of walnut liqueur, artichoke liqueur, zucchinis, tobacco, and marmalade. Gets more citrusy after that, with a distillate that still doesn’t quite clash this time (while it did in other sherried Clynelishes, in my opinion). With water: excellent! Not only because the spirit won in the end. Excellent crystallised lemons and oranges, always with this sooty side. Graphite-y
timer Finish
rather long, rather more orange-y. Great that a sherried bro could be so fresh and tart in the end
