Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

it’s a very grassy and austere one. Very punchy, slightly aggressive, lightly vegetal, chalky and plenty of mineral oil and graphite. These vegetal aspects become more assertive over time and you still feel this peppery heat. Some softer herbal complexities emerge in time. With water: lighter fluid, moss, lemon peel, white mushrooms, gravel, carbon paper and some sort of Scottish broth soup. Pretty whacky but fun

restaurant Palate

Gah! Intensely alcoholic at first. Really, only 100 proof you say? Now, it’s still got a lot of very nice flavours, it’s just that they’re really wrapped up in raw fire. More vegetable stocks, soups, mutton, oily sheep wool. brittle waxiness, cavass, clay and crushed aspirin. With water: (not being shy with the water here…) much better, and more cohesive I’d add. Still very peppery but more in terms of flavour than heat intensity now. Lots of pink, white and green pepper, paprika, Moroccan fruits in muesli, earthy turmeric, pollens, preserved lemons and even candle wax. Quite a ride!

timer Finish

long, rather salty, some coal dust, sheep wool, lemon peel, some green asparagus maybe, lanolin, medical balms. Getting a little too acrid and dusty in the aftertaste, OBE?
