Tasting Notes

Nose

Clean orange oil and blossom notes, copper and some sweet spice. I find this quite shy on the nose in comparison to the rather big, ballsy palate.

Palate

That orange initially hits but is quickly taken over with some sea salt, and then a really beery, sticky hop note – more on \r\nthe fermentation side than the finished product. Some freshly laid tarmac.

Finish

Those hops really stick around for me. It’s almost as if someone has dry-hopped this whisky!

Comment

Hopping mad.
