Nose
extraordinary notes of brine, mutton suet, cigar smoke, cumin, mustard, flint, smoked salmon… With water: boot polish, beeswax and always that suet.
Palate
brings Brora to mind, very saline, slightly acetic, resolutely mineral (clay, basalt), then getting tenser and tighter, with a most straightforward impression of smoked lemon. Excellent. With water: you've swallowed seawater while bathing in the ocean, then comforted yourself with a wee mezcal laced with lemon and salt. Nicely done.
Finish
long, even fresher, salty, smoky… The kippers aren't far off.
