Serge Valentin (84)

One of those provocatively unpronounceable NASses they seem to like to release from time to time… Colour: light gold. Nose: fail, it's peated! Albeit rather lightly so, as if they had kind of blended some unpeated with some peated, or even filled some ex-Moine casks. Not too sure, but indeed this is pleasant, feels a little young, displays some hay and a little tar, some orange blossom, bits of dried pears and apples, some smoked sausage German-style, and a small cup of lapsang souchong. There's something Indian to it, perhaps masala or something, which may come from the woods. Mouth: rather sweet and spicy, even more 'Indian' to my taste, with some lemongrass and coriander, some kind of smoky curry and a handful of cinnamon drops. Once again, the smokiness feels a little 'German'. Think cold-smoked Rohwürste sausages again, or there, Alsatian Landjäger. Also marmalade, grapefruit… Finish: rather long, still sweet and spicy, and pretty curry-like. Comments: certainly a softer, easier peater. Do you say 'toy-teach'?
