Tasting notes (Dramface)
Nose: Salty, chalky, mineralic, grassy farmyard funk. Those are the highlights and I love them. Slightly floral air of a summer evening sitting outside in the garden. The light is fading, the birds are tweeting and I’m perfectly content. There’s also vanilla, caramel, lemon oil and lemon bonbons, along with pebble beaches, sandalwood, pickled onion juice, olives, pine needles, a slightly herbal note and soot.
Palate: A nice oily texture. More of the salt, the minerals and the funk. The lemon is back too along with the introduction of a little orange. The fruit is sweet at first, but turns more towards the sour side with grapefruit creeping in. It’s briny with vanilla, root ginger and liquorice bringing a herbal element. I get sooty smoke from the peated barley, but it’s fairly light at first before it makes more of an impact as I got to the slightly drying finish. The smoke builds with herbal sage, grass and an increasing creaminess as it dissipates.
