BUNNAHABHAIN STAOISHA 2013 TASTING NOTES

Picture this: Devour jam sandwiches and custard doughnuts in your rain-lashed canvas tent on the edge of the windswept beach, whilst freshly-caught herrings spit outside on the smoky bonfire.

Neat, without water

Colour: Jasmine tea.

Nose: Marshmallows burning over a bonfire on a birch stick, petrol, Bunsen burner, rubber boots, canvas tent with a rubber tarpaulin base, shepherd's pie (or hachis parmentier) with extra Worcestershire sauce and brown sauce, plus sage, chives, valerian, blueberries, raspberry jam and chamomile tea.

Palate: Dirty funky smoke, capers, pork pie, herrings smoked over a bonfire, peanut butter, chai tea, sage, marjoram, dark chocolate and smoky bonfires.

Finish: Factory chimneys spewing smoke, plus vanilla latte and beignets, followed by perfect smoke rings.
