Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
white wine
air Nose
magnificent, in the spirit of some G&M CC, with a kind of tenderness but no caramel immediately detectable. Wonderful notes of lamp oil, an old shipwreck, sweet brine, then ink, old books, and the interior of an old 1960s car. Not a Rolls, more like a little Renault with a mix of leatherette, various plastics, and years of accumulated cigarette smoke. Remember? Not so long ago, one might have also said a Parisian taxi. Then, finally, anchovies in brine
restaurant Palate
it's fantastic, and not as weak as one might have expected, though you almost want to redistill it to bring it up to 50% vol. Or has anyone ever tried adding neutral medicinal alcohol to boost the strength of a spirit? Not me. Sardines, oysters, tar, old papers, grapefruit, smoked oysters…
timer Finish
medium length but perfect salinity and a maritime tarry side that has become very complex
