Isle of Raasay Distillery
Peated Ex-Bourdeaux Red Wine, cask 18/670 61.6%
Peated Spirit (48-52PPM)
Tasting note from a Cask Sample aged 35 months.
Tasted: Feb 2021
The nose displays an intensity of earthy peat and herbal black/ red fruit. Like the unpeated cask there is plenty of rose petal marc and raw spirit character.
The palate is raw, intense and herbal with again plenty of rose petal marc spirit, earthy/ dry peat and grippy tannins. The winey fruits are subtle, and the finish is masked, mouth-watering and alcoholic with lingering raw spirit and earthy peat.
Even with a drop of water the nose is still pretty raw with plenty of herbal spirit character. The wine cask influence is a lot lessened. The palate is likewise raw and spirity with subtle winey fruit. Again, there is less peat but it’s tarry and earthier. Camphor notes in the aftertaste.
