Nose

A real mariner (fishnet, seaweed). Smoke mingled with sea spray. Grassy. Watermelon. A touch of wild mint.

Palate

Sweet and minty. Caressing mouthfeel. Very refreshing and appetising. Quite simple.

Finish

Warm, drying on liquorice and soft spices.

Comment

A gentle Port Ellen, with the sea influencing the nose more than the palate. Would have proved a heftier guy at a higher strength.
