Tasting Notes

Colour

straw

air Nose

indeed we’re closer to straight maltiness, and we’re finding croissants, lemon curd, fudge, barley, muesli… With water: porridge with touches of smoke and ink

restaurant Palate

there, the distillate speaks out. It’s not as gentle as expected, and I’m also finding notes of peppered cream cheese, which is a tad odd… Also dried porcini powder. A funny one, this one! With water: tonic water, lime, and chilli pepper liqueur. Indeed. Gets gentler over time, though, maltier…

timer Finish

rather long, leafier, getting a little bitter. Green pepper
