Tasting Notes

Colour

deep gold

air Nose

a curious convergence of honeycomb, fresh putty and rubber. Some mushroom powder, damp earth and a little tobacco leaf as well. Feels as though the sherry isn’t entirely integrated, but it’s very pleasant nonetheless. Some overripe banana, a touch of soot and camphor. With water: some wild flowers, hessian, cheesecloth and a touch of mustard powder. Still rather dusty - is dustiness a Benrinnes ‘thing’?

restaurant Palate

the wood feels a bit aggressive here; pencil shavings, sawdust and dried cranberries alongside dusty cereals, cornflour and slightly sour butter. A bit strange really. With water: gets a tad acrid, oilier and with a few notes of yellow flowers, overripe oranges, tea tree oil and hummus

timer Finish

decent length but becoming more acrid and drying. White pepper and flints with some carbon paper and chalkiness
