Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
typical of these very high-strength Speysiders where almost all you get is coffee and grass. It’s the alcohol, baby… Quick, with water: smells like a cow stable, even after a good fifteen minutes of breathing! Certainly a little too newmakish. Wet hay, horse dung… Gets then very grassy again. Green apples. Not an easy one!
restaurant Palate
bigly lemony and immensely grassy, on the verge of being bitter. Once again, water is mandatory or you can say bye-bye to your throat (and probably anything below it). With water: good, sweeter, very creamy, tasting like some orange liqueur doped with a little black pepper
timer Finish
long, sweet, fruity, slightly bubblegummy, with a peppery aftertaste
