Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
screams ‘old refill’ at first nosing, with mostly notes of passion fruits, metal polish and soot. The problem is that those rather superb notes are soon to fade away (or you get used to them too quickly, you know, your olfactory bulb and your brain playing dirty tricks…), leaving room for some faintly flattish and blandish grainy and slightly cardboardy notes. There are some herbal convulsions (mainly mint) but that’s pretty all. Wow, that was fast!
restaurant Palate
not as ‘flatly dead’ as I had feared, quite the opposite! Good attack, fairly rich and even oily, on green apples and tropical fruits (I get mangos, maybe papayas), with some fresh butter and vanilla coating the whole. The middle is a tad weaker but that’s more than okay here. A little tea and touches of ginger and cinnamon
timer Finish
not short, on more cinnamon and nutmeg. Grassy aftertaste (green tannins), some lemon as well
