Tasting Note
Tasted: Nov 2009
Crisp and dry, with quite a neutral nose. It’s quite London-dry like with hints of citrus peel, juniper along with a light whisky-esque character, a touch of resin and a floral note. The palate is very good. Full and fleshy, quite floral with a lovely complexity of citrus, berries and leafy herbs. A brief sweet note appears on the middle presumably from the Coul blush apple, followed by a soft bitterness. Good length with a distinct peppery finish.
Description
Distilled at the Balmenach Distillery using six traditional botanicals and five Celtic ones – Rowan berry, heather, bog myrtle, dandelion and Coul blush apple. Produced in small batches of around 100 litres, the botanicals are infused in grain spirit, vapourised through a copper berry chamber and blended with local Rasmudin Burn water.
