A marriage of refill hogsheads from 1991 and 1997.Tasting Notes by Speciality Drinks Ltd
Nose
Boiled sweets and cut grass initially, then more savoury notes move in. Expected alcohol prickle fades away to emerging sweetness. Some spices, then medicine cabinet aromas develop, before matches, buttered veg, toffee apple, tweed and honey. A complex nose that needs time to settle. Water brings out toffee biscuit and barley sugar.
Taste
Plenty of balanced peat, with woodsmoke, coal and bonfire. Peppery spice in the mid-palate, with some chilli and hot-buttered toast with honey. Water lifts the coal, spices and apple flavours.
Finish
Warming and long, with honey, pepper and coal surrounding a savoury cereal base, with occasional flashes of cooked apple. A salty tinge right at the death.
