Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
full gold
air Nose
Kicks off with the ever-faithful walnut and honey cake, a touch of fresh varnish and coconut in the background, then a wave of sticky toffee pudding and roasted pecans. That’s pretty much irresistible. With water: just a whisper of brake pad smoke, a hint of roasted aubergine, and then the usual parade of dried fruits, chocolate, roasted malt, and spices
restaurant Palate
very classic—chocolate-covered cherries (Mon Chéri), raisins, and fruitcake. That usual powerful delivery, slightly perilous if you’re not careful, given how deceptively easy it drinks. With water: this strikes me as a solid batch. Lovely pepperiness, bitter oranges, black coffee, cherry stones, ginger, and nutmeg
timer Finish
extremely long, with spiced caramel making its mark alongside a good dose of liquorice
