SWEETLY MODERN
Cask No. 60.31
FIRST APPEARANCE FROM THIS DISTILLERY FOR SMWS CANADA
A very calm, relaxing, and fragrant intoxicating scent of thyme, tarragon and moss as well as lavender and angelica and under fern-laden undergrowth plenty of wild mint. On the palate two comments to be highlighted, “sweet as a nut” and “Bärentatze“(a bear’s paw), or a small cream-filled puff pastry. Following reduction, loads of eucalyptus, honeysuckle, tea tree oil and balsamic vinegar next to red vermouth and bramble liqueur.
The taste was that of spiced walnut cake with a pomegranate molasses frosting next to a classic cocktail called ‘Blood and Sand’, whisky, sweet vermouth, cherry liqueur and freshy squeezed orange juice garnished with orange peel. Made with Great Western pale malt.
