Tasting Notes

Colour

golden bronze-ish/copperish amber (what?)

air Nose

whilst 40% are often too weak, 43% sometimes work beautifully and this is a clear example. 100-year-old Yquem, precious palo-cortado (I remember some crazy old decanters by Barbadillo), box of old Cuban cigars, 'old Jag', old books, dark pollen, metal polish, pinecone smoke, balsa wood and incense sticks, tiny white pineapples (the name escapes me), dried bananas… This is really funny; it tends to move towards fab old rums. Very old agricoles?

restaurant Palate

this is so totally funny and unusual! There's a very specific mix of tropical fruits, for example, these tiny litchis, small bananas, pomegranates for sure, wild strawberries (and the liqueur made thereof)… and then off to smokier pastures, with black tobacco, black tea, raw chocolate, even grilled beef, all that with a tiny bit of violet sweet in the background. But not that one

timer Finish

almost long, rather more on coffee and chocolate, with more old sherries and walnut wines and cigars and… Well, it's time we called the Anti-Maltoporn Brigade, don't you think. I'll still mention some wild strawberries making sheep's eyes in the aftertaste – with a wink
