Tasting Notes

Colour

full gold

air Nose

rather gentle and cake-y at first, with some walnut wine and only a touch of curry, some wood smoke, some Maggi, tar liqueur, pinewood ashes… This is all most intriguing. With water: hey, peat! This baby never stopped gaining speed and power. Beach bonfire, dried kelp… Boy did it evolve!

restaurant Palate

raw and smoky indeed, with a sourness (cherries), some kind of smoked wine (don't say that doesn't exist!) and probably some eucalyptus and menthol. Really very different and really pretty peaty, in fact. With water: very good but I'm lost. What is this? Is this Ben Nevis indeed?

timer Finish

long, peaty, peppery, very ashy
