Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

I find it rather less freshly fruity than other expressions, and rather without the trademark bananas and papayas. Having said that, I’m finding some awesome notes of herbal teas, of eucalyptus, balsa wood, patchouli, preserved apricots, and raisins and walnuts, which suggest a sherry influence. I find it pretty complex, if a little un-Balblair

restaurant Palate

the fruits are back, this time with a lot of marmalade and chocolate (Jaffa cakes), apricots, raisins, blood oranges, a little tobacco… It tends to become a little leafy, with some greener herbal teas. Wee notes of sour wine

timer Finish

medium, balanced, going from oranges to black tea, coffee and nutmeg
