Tasting Notes
Colour
deep gold
air Nose
plasticine, brake fluid, agricole rhum and flower honey - go figure! It certainly feels like a fusion of a classically honeyed, mature Speyside profile with some funny mechanical aspects. With some time, it's the honeys and fruits that take the lead, with green banana, gooseberry and lemon curd emerging. With water: hothouse flowers, dried fruits including mango, banana chips and apple rings. Also some slightly sharper impressions of fruit eau de vies (kirsch and mirabelle)
restaurant Palate
a richer and slightly drier than expected profile. Some lovely waxiness, some cedar wood, dried flowers full of pollen, dried mint, subtle impressions of herbal liqueurs and herbal teas, along with a slightly spicy and sappy element from the wood. I like it a lot. With water: again, it becomes drier, more sappy, slightly more astringent, piney, waxy, more bitterly herbal, along with camphor and feelings of dried out old dessert wines
timer Finish
quite long, maintaining these themes of dried flowers, pollens, cedar wood, along with light sappy and herbal combinations
