Tasting Notes

Colour

pinkish

air Nose

right, it’s a style. It’s not to my liking but this time it’s not repulsive, not at all, and we’re rather in the style of Edradour’s Ballechins. Probably from inactive casks before the finishing process. Notes of strawberries, ‘green’ peat, garden bonfire and quite a lot of smoked tea. Cherry stem tea. With water: becomes very farmy, ala Ballechin indeed

restaurant Palate

smoky strawberry jam! It’s a narrow and simple profile but it’s very spectacular and technically perfect (as far as I can tell). With water: more of all that. Smoked strawberries, Jell-O, peated jelly beans?

timer Finish

long, very clean
