Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

a more active cask, which translates into more custard and butterscotch. All the rest is rather on the 'gentler' side of Ben Nevis, with some fern, walnuts and ashes. Plus candlewax and zests. Water may change things… With water: acacia honey, honeysuckle, beeswax, marzipan… Indeed this is rather gentler. No spent engine oil and rusty old boats to be seen here

restaurant Palate

superb rounder, more citrusy, more liqueury Ben Nevis. The mangos, oranges and peaches are back. Sooty ashes in the background. With water: some salty medicinal and lemony notes ala older Laphroaig. Ashes in the background

timer Finish

long, curiously bigger and tighter, more robust, more Fort Williams (what?)
