Tasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
was it still Seagram that made these peated batches? It’s one of the most delicate and elegant peat I’ve seen, although delicateness and elegance might not quite be what you’d expect from a peated whisky. Love these whiffs of old toolbox, penny book, castor oil, fresh oil paint, or linseed oil… It’s a very un-coastal peatiness, but the mainland sure has its charms
restaurant Palate
I remember why I loved an earlier version, it’s because it’s so un-Islay. Salted cough syrup, ink, smoked salmon, ashes… I’m re-reading my old notes, and it seems that it used to be fruitier, while this one’s clearly more ashy/salty/sooty. Eating cigar ashes (while distracted)
timer Finish
quite long, very ashy. I don’t quite know where this saltiness come from – doesn’t smoke trigger salt on our tongues? A debate to open on a whisky forum, one day…
