Notes

Cask No. 1.261

Take a tumble

Speyside, Spey

We noted sunflower and olive oils to begin, that typically oily, textural richness that so often seems to characterise this make from bourbon in youth is here in abundance. Also many fresh breads and pastries, petrichor, damp moss, orange vitamin tablets in soda water, golden syrup and oatcakes. Water brought out malt syrup, shilling ales, hops, brown bread, croissant, meadow flowers and putty. The palate when neat showed a lovely balance between oily texture and warm bready flavours. Lots of netter tea, herbal extracts and soft sandalwood notes too. Water brought pressed flowers, pollens, vase water, lemon barley water and syrupy sweet fruit cordials.
