Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
deep gold/amber
air Nose
huge, liqueury vanilla and caramelised oak, warm sawdust, maple syrup, nutmeg and cinnamon. Fully oak-driven at this point, it’s quite the opposite of the old 10. With water: a carpenter’s workshop just before Christmas ;-). Touches of menthol, hops (the carpenter just had a beer), gngerbread and tobacco
restaurant Palate
very rich, thick, gingery, with a lot of vanilla but also pleasant notes of lemon and green apples. Much less elephantine than I had feared but the oak is huge. More and more pepper. With water: it became some kind of ultra-sweet ginger liqueur. Very oily mouthfeel, you almost need a spoon to get it out of your glass. Marmalade and a lot of it
timer Finish
long, with all spices in the front. Ginger, cloves, cinnamon, nutmeg. And white pepper
