Cask No. 13.97
A wee, sweet-toothed, Scottish picnic
Highland, Northern
The nose was a wee, sweet-toothed, Scottish picnic in a garden – black coffee with butterscotch, macaroons, tablet and a tin of assorted biscuits. The palate seemed diverse – one of us was licking dry wood, another had more fun licking ice-creams (rum and raisin, mint-choc chip); we all got lively spice warmth. The reduced nose combined apple strudel, fudge sundae and sugar-coated fennel seeds with tobacco tins and carpet shops. The palate was a stushie between sweetness (shortbread, Blackpool rock) and ginger and menthol heat – sweetness prevailed producing ginger snap biscuits and menthol sweets – and a finish of lip-smacking contentment.
