Wemyss Seaweed on the Rocks
1991 Bunnahabhain
Nose: Fresh
sea breeze, brine soaked seaweed, light wisps of smoke, sweet oak, sour apple
Chewits, comic pears, preserved lemons, ground white pepper, Waitrose pickled
cornichons with dill flower, Marabou Swedish milk chocolate, Asda key lime
cheesecake and a tray of warm homemade flapjacks.
Palate: Ash,
preserved lemons, cold crisp mackerel skin, sea spray, dried oak, wood spice, Hartley’s
gooseberry jam, Braeburn apples, vanilla fudge, aniseed twists and something
rather vivaciously vinous.
Finish: A lush
lingering, coastal cracker of a finish.
Summary: Yet
another bountiful, balanced single cask belter from Wemyss, which as always
does exactly what it says on the tin, or in this case the bottle.
