Dist: Nov 2008 Btl: 2023
Tasted: Feb 2024
Aromas of fresh, astringent, herbal peat intermingled with white peach, pear and apple. Subtle sweet barley apricot and unsweetened honey. Lovely intensity with a nasal coating hit of salt, bog myrtle, malt and honeysuckle.
The palate displays plenty of waxy/ oily apricot, banana skin and honey but subtler peat. Hints of bog myrtle, seaweed, white chocolate, barley, vanilla, menthol, sweet ginger, cinnamon and salt. Breathtaking intensity with a long, salty, mentholated finish.
Water doesn’t make much of a change to the nose. It’s possibly a little more herbal and astringent. On the palate it has brought forward the oak and the oily spirit character, but it still has that lovely coastal astringency and long, salty finish.
