4.335 Herbal harbourside harmony

Description

Our noses detected smoked almonds and smouldering hay, buttery grilled mackerel, lavender and a French polisher’s kit. The palate combined bacalhau and smoked fish paté with clean, tingly notes of menthol, tea tree and mojitos. The reduced nose suggested wax jackets on a harbour, fresh cut grass, coal and Hershey’s chocolate. The palate’s delicate herbal smoke spiralled around flavours of yellow fruit pastilles, cape gooseberries and wild mint. At eight years of age, we combined selected casks from the same distillery. We then returned the single malt into a variety of casks to develop further. This is one of those casks.
