Tasting Notes

A curious nose melded medicinal vapour oils with foam shrimp sweeties and red apples, alongside polished new leather, mineral oils, sandalwood and lemon icing. Some water brought out more apple notes, along with other green orchard fruits, vanilla custard, camphor and firm notes of white pepper and tea tree oil, complex and entertaining. In the mouth we found banana cake, delicate medicinal embrocations, crushed nettles, chalky vibes and certain aspects reminiscent of older Irish whiskeys. With water it became more mentholated, with eucalyptus, mint and rolling tobaccos, plus aged calvados, wine must and more camphor notes.
