Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

A much leaner and more powerful style. Full of wet leaves, moss, snapped twigs, earthy potting sheds and then bags of raw barley, porridge oats, plush cereals, buttery toast and a big spoonful of golden style and barley sugars. Evolves to become more honeyed and approachable with a little breathing time. You can also find wee flourishes of waxes and herbs. Quite superb but absolutely a geek’s whisky style I would say. With water: rather more buttery and oily now, with sweet cereals, dried mint and things like putty and lamp oil. Superb and very old school

restaurant Palate

big, fatty, herbal and waxy. With an almost greasy vegetal quality that feels somehow both textural as well as flavoursome. More leafy and mulchy notes, petrichor, herbal teas, citronella and a wee hint of nutmeg. With water: honeyed, waxy, peppery, lightly spicy and full of gentle notes of lightly smoked teas (lapsang souchong, earl grey) mineral oil, shoe polish and menthol tobacco

timer Finish

long with a rather thready waxiness, some white pepper, cinnamon, olive oil and more notes of shoe and metal polishes
