GREEN SPOT 40%


Nose:
Very earthy. Herbs zigzagging amidst the glorious pot still character. Vanilla.




Palate:
Full bodied. Unknown herbs picked from a hidden moor. Honey mixed with just a smudge of sherry. Pot still at its most vibrant.




Finish:

Enormously long and complex. Life-affirming.



Comment:
At the end of the 90´s this was so scarce, I had to order it from a small Internet shop in Ireland. Since then it has become much more visible and even managed to pop up once at my local store. A transition which must mean increased production. Despite this, it has managed to retain all of its great qualities. No mean feat.


Rating: 9/10
