Tasting Notes
The Panellists all found this one possessed a decidedly menthol note at first nosing, recording impressions of eucalyptus, menthol rolling tobacco and dried mint. Then we found sandalwood, flower pollen, miso and dried thyme. A little reduction brought the sweet and gooey feeling of clotted cream, along with milk chocolate, porridge sweetened with flower honey and vanilla sponge cake. The neat palate was quite powerful and intense, with many notes of cocoa, dried chilli, toasted pine nuts, lemon balm and aged sweet wines. Water brought out some crystallised fruits, tea tree oil, medicinal vapour rubs and more hints of tobaccos, cupboard spices and chocolate. At 10 years of age, we combined selected casks from the same distillery. We then returned the single malt into a variety of different casks to develop further. This is one of those casks.
