Tasting Notes
Tasting Notes
Producer's Tasting Notes
Nose
Classic coastal sea spray with an undercurrent of caramel and buttered popcorn. A background note of aniseed marries nicely with lime oil and thyme.
Palate
The texture is creamy and full with flavours of baked lemon and rock salt. The distillery’s flinty edge is on show and balances nicely with the flavour of delicate custard.
Finish
Juicy and long, with lemon oil and cloves coming through.

One of the biggest disappointments I had from CL.
A delicious dram, more smokey than the description suggests.
