Tasting Notes

Colour

full gold

air Nose

exceptional indeed. Extremely elegant peat with dozens of sub-aromas such as leather, smoked ham, smoked tea, grapefruits, Seville oranges, wet rocks, flints, black pepper, bitter chocolate, seaweed, camphor… Smells much older. With water: becomes ‘tertiary’, with notes of pipe tobacco, patchouli, sandal wood and quite some fresh putty

restaurant Palate

double bang. Peated grapefruits, pepper, angelica, crystallised oranges, white pepper and lemon. How big. With water: more of the same, just a little more drinkable

timer Finish

long, a tad spicier (ginger, green mustard) with notes of oysters + lemon in the aftertaste
