Tasting Notes
We were ‘making hay while the sun shines’ and being thirsty work, we had plenty of cloudy cider and heather ales to keep us going. A lovely combination of sweet, floral and malty flavours on the palate neat with coconut cookies as well as buttered toast and a hint of a spicy herbal finish. With water we enjoyed a brioche and coconut macaroons washing them down with a glass of a snowball cocktail made with that rich and creamy custard-like Dutch liqueur called Advocaat. Following eight years in an ex-bourbon hogshead, we transferred this whisky into a 1st fill toasted, high lactone American oak barrique.
