Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
Mahogany
air Nose
there are similarities, obviously, but this one’s much more austere, more on coffee and earth, and rather without the jams and the flowers that abound in the 2009. Touches of old copper and gun oil. I suppose it needs water. With water: chocolate and pencil shavings, a little caraway and cinnamon, coffee with ‘ideas’ of mint (which works here, quite bizarrely)
restaurant Palate
heavy and thick, very powerful, extremely chocolaty, with a lot of bitter marmalade and chocolate-coated raisins. I think Cadbury’s got some but those are way too sweet, better have a glass of Edradour ;-). With water: we’ve approached the ‘Vintage’, but we’re still one or two points under our new par as far as young Edradour’s concerned. Very good though, pretty miso-y, with this salty touch
timer Finish
long, salty, earthy, and really very good. This is Maggi – do you know Maggi? They have a new shop in Edinburgh, it’s called M.S.S. (Maggi Shop Scotland) located at Mr. MacRaild’s, 782 Prairie Oyster Rd, EH1 B12 Edinburgh, Scotland
