Tasting Notes

Colour

amber

air Nose

a sherry of very high quality! Big whiffs of squeezed Seville oranges and marzipan, then more woody tones including cigar box, ‘nice’ varnish and old walnuts. Goes on on liquor-soaked cherries (make that guignolet – or wild cherry liqueur) and caramelised poached pears, with finally a little milk chocolate and cappuccino. Oh, and hints of fried Swiss cheese (or comté) – not gym socks, min you! Pretty perfect!

restaurant Palate

excellent attack, smooth but firm, on, well, Irish coffee. A lot of figs, quinces and dates, then liqueur-filled chocolate, plum jam, chestnut purée, then more chocolate (dark this time), espresso… Gets bigger and bigger, and beautifully drier. Excellent whisky with a long and very entertaining development

timer Finish

medium-long but fabulously chocolaty
