Cask No. 93.200 Oily & coastal

THE WESTERN SHORE OF THE KITCHEN SINK

sold out

A familiar impression of swimming pools, distant shorelines, bandages and washed linens drying by the sea; classic and typical of this lovely make. We also noted pink sea salt and a tang of citrus marmalades. Reduction brought a richer and more savoury profile that included miso butter, anchovy paste, sandalwood and dried seaweed crackers, with a little heat of mustard powder in the background.

The palate opened with mechanical oils, tangy pink grapefruit and coastal notes of seawater, plus some medicinal bandages. We also noted fruity shisha smoke, fir wood resins, dried tarragon and salty Dutch liquorice. With water came fermented pineapple, preserved lemons, wine gums, more bandages, chalk and mineral oils. A general impression of delicious seashore dross!
