12/2011 tasting

 

N: Brine, slightly sweet

 

 

P: Whoa, out to sea. Seawater candy over fresh asphalt. Watery mouthfeel but full flavor. The finish is solid but doesn't overlinger like similar malts, although if you're a mouthbreather the next few breaths will feel like you are in a mine or factory.

Solid B

 

 

 

Retry 6/19/20 (fresh bottle)

 

 

n: box of matches, lemon, and sugar

 

 

p: Wow. phosphorus and a hint of hard salty caramel candies. Hint of lumber. The finish is lip-smacking white pepper.

A-

 

 

Fuji
 
This tasted and smelled of a young islay (tasted blind).  Very oily with lots of yeast/ malt and spearmints along with herbal qualities (cloves) and green vegetation.  It finishes nicely with fudge and black peppers. B/B+
