Scotland
We absolutely loved the regular 46.8% Rock Oyster embracing the character of Jura, Islay, Arran and Orkney, which makes this limited edition punchier cask strength version a very exciting release! The tube features some fisherman out at sea, one of whom looks suspiciously like that Big Peat fellow...
A big hit of coastal peat, tarry rope, tobacco, lime zest, candied fruit, white pepper and sea spray.
Quite tumultuous with hints of all sorts: capers, starfruit, seaweed, vanilla, honey, citrus, green wood, perhaps some heather? Evocative stuff.
Brine, citrus, dying smoke.
We’re no longer so much on the coast of the Scottish islands, but out to sea in the crashing waves (like that tube), with just a few reminders of our points of departure and arrival.
Can't wait till you have this in stick so I can buy a bottle. Tried it at an event in London. 19/20.
