Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
you can really feel the new wood here—fresh sawdust, peppermint, and citrus from the virgin oak, followed by a generous helping of coconut and some rather expressive elderflowers. There’s also broom in the mix, with a backdrop of fresh varnish, vanilla, and perhaps even a touch of rye, no doubt from the bourbon casks. What’s surprising is that, despite the wood taking the lead (white oak indeed), it’s very enjoyable, even somewhat spectacular. After a few minutes, some mashed potato notes creep in
restaurant Palate
similar impression—wood-forward but fresh and fruity, mainly on citrus. It doesn’t seem like the barrels were overly charred. Lots of green tea and sawdust, with that pencil shavings note that sometimes shows up
timer Finish
long, leaning towards heavily brewed black tea with two slices of lemon instead of just one. But no milk, thank you very much
