Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
the lighter colour didn't suggest this would be this oloroso-y, that is to say full of raw chocolate and roasted pecans, plus toffee, old walnuts and marmalade. It is also a little cologne-y I have to say. With water: the cologne is gone, but some leather and leaves are chiming in, together with some oak spices. Ras-el-hanout (hello Moroccan friends!) and yellow curry powder
restaurant Palate
classic young sherry monster, rather in the style of the old Macallan 10 C/S, or of earlier Aberlour A'bunadhs or Glenfarclas 105. A monster fruitcake, dried figs, armagnac and prunes, slivovitz, chocolate, then heavy teas and an unexpected pinch of salt. With water: gets grassier and spicier, with much more cinnamon as well, as if it had been more about the oak than about the sherry
timer Finish
rather long, with a little citrus, more cinnamon, nutmeg and again, this pinch of salt(iness) in the aftertaste
