Tasting Notes
Limited to 1 bottle per member
Pure and immediate pleasure! A wealth of complex aromas including sweetened green tea, heather ales, flower honey, sweetened porridge, sandalwood, gorse flower, brittle waxes, pollens and wax jacket grease. The epitome of refined maturity and beauty in malt whisky. With a little water we got more pollens, chamomile, wildflowers, tea tree oil, hessians and bitter citrus piths as well as precious hardwoods, like the inside of a freshly made acoustic guitar. The palate bloomed initially with dried flowers and rich spices, things like hot cross buns, smoked white pepper, camphor and nutmeg. Then with water, citronella wax, ancient herbal liqueurs, stout beers, hardwood resins, miso broth and verbena. An endless and spellbinding vortex of complexity keeps you perpetually transfixed.
