Tasting Notes
The nose was typical of this make and suggested oily sheep wool infused with sea kelp. Then smouldering dried herbs, pickled black olives and smoky porridge. Some water brought medical vapour rubs, marjoram and smoked limoncello with poster paints. The palate opened with natural tar, a hot farmyard muddy quality (nicer than it sounds) and burnt brisket ends. Some water brought lovely notes of smoked olive oil, iron filings, medicinal embrocations and things like gorse, seawater and miso paste.
