80
- Nose
- Soft fruit. Brambles. Juniper, sea air.
- Palate
- At first the port seems to have sweetened the spirit, and accentuated its estery fruitiness. Then Caol Ila comes through: sandy, dry, junipery.
- Finish
- A nice, lively touch of appetising bitterness.
- Comment
- I would like to try this with lamb.
80
- Nose
- Pale onion skin colour. Clean smooth peatiness. If you could smoke strawberries they'd smell like this.
- Palate
- An interesting mix of pastille-like red fruits/cherry with subtle smoke. A sweet centre with the peat wrapped around.
- Finish
- Sweet, winey, then dry smoke.
- Comment
- It's a weird one but everything is in balance. Worth a shot.
