Nose: Whole grain dijon, warm sidewalk, Santa Ana winds in LA, dry hay and dandelions, lemon oil.
Palate: Cold smoked meats. I can almost taste barley. This is lovely. Hint of brine on a well- basted turkey slice. Chamomile with a twist of lemon zest. Green peppercorn. A quiet mineral note.
Rating: 8 / 10 – this is such a nice sipper. It was a gifted sample and had it blind. I guessed springbank. This is an unusually balanced longrow, and what a nice sipper it is. A bottle meant to enjoy.
