Tasting Notes

The aroma ticked all the boxes to make your heart content with smoked kabanos sausages, smoky sweet pickles with strawberries, balsamic-brown butter sauce, shoe polish, cigar boxes and an old coal scuttle in a remote bothy. On the palate we found a rich, aromatic, smooth yet smoky, moreish damson porter beer with a great balance of chocolate, roasted malt and sweet yet tangy damsons. After reduction we enjoyed a sticky pork cha siu bao bun in a dunnage warehouse as a starter before we dug into a Cumberland-glazed roast lamb shoulder. Following 20 years in an ex-bourbon hogshead, we transferred this whisky into a first fill shaved, toasted and recharred oloroso-seasoned barrique.
