Tasting Notes
We roped ourselves to the shoreline before discovering glistening kelp, hessian sacks full of coal ash and icing sugar soaking in the sea. The palate had an earthy quality, with notes of iodine, peat and a burst of green apple contrasting fried tenderstem broccoli. Reduction enhanced the salinity on the nose and added sweet cinnamon and peanut paste. Gradually adding water, the Panel thoroughly enjoyed the dram's development from nutty and woody to wintergreen minty fresh. At seven years of age, we combined selected casks from the same distillery. We then returned the single malt into a variety of different casks to develop further. This is one of those casks.
