SPIRIT NOTES
Imagine standing at the old harbour wall watching a puffer arrive and the wind carrying the aromas from the nearby Petrol station, cheese and fish monger. A lot smokier on the palate neat, like a steaming hot smoked haddock and cockle soup, peppered smoked mackerel filets and a traditional Greek cheese smoked for 12 days using grass, leaves and herbs. After the addition of water, we fed a furnace in a foundry with heather, tarragon, lavender and rosemary before we were back at the fishmonger for smoked eel, smoked cockles in brine and to finish it all how about spicy, smoky, sweet and sour dill pickles.
