Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
quite close to the regular 10, only with more oomph. A lot of oranges, beeswax, fresh butter and ‘yellow’ flowers but also a little white chocolate and then mint, apple peeling, moss, mushrooms and wet earth. A little less shoe polish and ginger than in the first batch, which I liked maybe just a tad better. More porridge
restaurant Palate
big-big, smoky, wonderfully nutty and roasted and very gingery as well. Quite some lemon as well and then a lot of pepper. Grows a tad too powerful after a few seconds so let’s add water now (while the nose got more mineral and smoky): excellent development, it got creamier, oily, rich, wonderfully spicy (cloves) and orangey. Same ‘orangey/leathery’ notes as in the 10
timer Finish
long, very ‘full’, more on lemon, vanilla, chocolate, ginger and salt
