Tasting Notes

Colour

deep gold

air Nose

I’ve never been this glad to welcome raisins and sweet wine to a tasting session. Don’t get me wrong, this is not a sherry bomb at all, but we’re really back on cakes, scones, kougelhopf, baked raisins, sweet wine (okay, PX if you like)… Actually, I’d even dare mentioning Mars bars (a Scottish trauma, I know). Nice nose. With water:

restaurant Palate

very good! We’re somehow within the style of the official 21, only with more power. Rum and raisins, caramel sauce, praline, butterscotch, turon, malty bread, a little chalk, caramelised pecans (pure slaughter, as we say)… I believe the tight, zesty style of this distillate combines very well with self-restrained sherry, really. This is proof, tremendously (didn’t we say we’d now stop using this vocabulary, S.?)

timer Finish

rather long, on liquid Mars bar, maple syrup, coffee extract, walnut cake, roasted nuts… It really was a good butt. Great grassiness and lime juice in the aftertaste
