Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
reddish amber
air Nose
this one's very intriguing, because it's meant to be fresh oak and yet one can find peonies, or raisins in this nose, which suggests some sherry's been involved. Hard to say... Having said that, it's a very tight one again, this time more on figs and toffee plus nutmeg, then more vanilla and coconut, bourbon-style. Also a growing feeling of spearmint drops. A full pack! With water: rye! And liquorice, violet sweets, star anise, pastis, leather, earth
restaurant Palate
wham! Tastes like strong bourbon to me, but I'm sure water will help. Not that there's anything wrong with bourbon, of course. With water: wood works. Sandal wood, cedar wood, cinnamon, then a few ashes (cigar ashes) and plain tobacco. You may add half a kumquat
timer Finish
very long, spicier and peatier, although it's no peat monster. Roots, pu-ehr tea, earth, ginger, butterscotch and salted caramel
