Tasting Notes

air Nose

straight into shoe polish and gun oil, all rather military, then increasingly on pencil shavings with a mix of citrus zest, curry and ginger. The cask was active. With water: it folds back slightly onto cedarwood

restaurant Palate

very powerful, spicy but not over the top, very citrussy too, veering more and more toward bergamot and the usual mustard. It’s quite something to witness the battle between cask and distillate, with the latter gradually winning out. What a beast! With (Roger) water(s) – yes, another daft joke, even here: again not much change, though a saltier edge emerges

timer Finish

same again for quite a while
