Notes
Cask No. 12.25
Stealth truffle pig
Speyside, Lossie
A red fruit-scented, Beaujolais nouveau-primed sweet abundance of red fruit compotes, furniture polish, treacle tart, nutmeg and spiced fruit chutneys. Also plum wine, orange bitters and sweet roasted peppers. Water brings toasted brioche, buttery croissant, raisins, youthful Petite Champagne cognac, menthol toothpaste and herbal resins - like an aged herbal liqueur. In the mouth, initially, it’s all strawberry jam, wood char, frying bacon, serranno ham, black pepper and maraschino cherry. Some chilli oil gives heat and there are suggestions of truffle pecorino and chocolate syrups. Reduction enhances the savoury aspects with notes of brown bread, coal dust, sooty ointments, aspirin, honeydew melon, camphor, sour cherries and blackcurrant cordial. Matured for nine years in a bourbon hogshead before transfer to a 1st fill charred red wine barrique.
