Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
starts rather malty and slightly toasted, with notes of, er, toasts, cornflakes, caramel and vanilla fudge as well as faint gingery notes (like speculoos). Nice herbal notes behind all that, hints of orange zests, hawthorn… Gets then more and more ‘oriental’, that is to say more and more on orange blossom water, baklavas, spicy honey… Very nice development, it started a tad ‘mundane’ but never stopped getting more complex and aromatic. In other words, needs time if you don’t want to miss it
restaurant Palate
good, smooth attack but there’s also quite some wood, an obvious tannicity and notes of strong tea that are very noticeable… What’s nice is that they come with some mint and liquorice, which soften the tannins in some way. Keeps improving after that, with some lemon marmalade and touches of coriander
timer Finish
rather long, with more pepper. Malty signature, a faint smokiness and quite some liquorice
