I had thought this baby would be having a hard time after the 1930s but that’s not the case at all. Now, what’s also very surprising is these very unusual and huge notes of melon liqueur. Wait, no, it is virtually plain melon liqueur! I’m not joking. With water: it’s the expected dried fruits that emerge now. We all know them, raisins, figs, dates, kumquats… And a little mint and liquorice as often
restaurant Palate
amazing, after melon liqueur, now it’s cough syrup galore. That is to say that we have a lot of liquorice and pine resin plus maybe traces of overripe strawberries. Or rather strawberry jam. Is this really whisky? With water: perfect resinous and mentholated fruitiness. Cough syrup indeed
timer Finish
long, with hints of aniseed and liquorice. Could this be antique pastis? Ouzo? Raki?
