Bourbon
Code:DIR0067
Dist: Sept 80 Btl: Jan 14
Quite fresh an every for its age. Grilled banana liberally coated in sweet honey. In fact its a real sweet fest! Gentle oils lap at the edges along with a touch of camphor, creosote, tarry-peat and iodine with time. Stunning depth. A lively old skool, garden fresh Caol Ila.
The palate opens quite sweet and oily with some tar and dusty peat. Pleasantly spiced with hints of camphor and bog myrtle. The barley sweetens as the sugars come in to play. Long and tarry with creosote infused spices, a little citrus, big myrtle and iodine. Wonderfully fresh white fruit finish, which is abetted by a sliver of brine. Stunningly deep. The oils return in the after-taste along with a little mocha and parma violets.
