Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
this one is almost silent after the very expressive ’51.7’, maybe we should give it a little more time… zzz… zzz… Indeed, it wakes up but slowly, with much less fruits and honey and more grass and oak. Cedarwood, tobacco, then more quinces. A rather dry fruitiness but it’s coming, with notes of oranges, but the oak remains quite load (carpenter’s workshop). With water: it’s funny how the fruits came out, this is almost like the ’51.7’ but when that one was undiluted. Very little medicinal notes here, rather sultanas, honeydew and spiced chutneys and behind all that, seaweeds and hessian
restaurant Palate
what we didn’t have in the nose (neat) is on the palate. So we’re much closer to the previous one except that there’s even more spices and tobacco-like notes. Big cinnamon and cloves, a little molasses and then more ginger and caraway, just like in the previous one. With water: gets rather drier and oaky, quite tea-ish, without the stunning kind of development that the previous one displayed, but it’s still great. Cedarwood and cinnamon, then candied citrons
timer Finish
long, on cinnamon, citrons and oranges
