Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
starts quite nervous and very buttery, almost like a fresh ‘true’ croissant and develops more on ginger, heady flowers (peonies, lilies) and warm porridge. Also orange skin and cinchona (very ‘Campari’). Hints of nougat and peat as well. With water: more ginger and spices, with kind of an unusual farminess. Farmyard, ‘clean’ cow stable and a little more peat
restaurant Palate
very unusual. Big notes of cider, even calavados, roasted nuts, walnuts, dry sherry (taste of ‘yellow’), hints of kirsch and again these buttery notes (cooked butter, pastries). A lot of liquorice as well. With water: it’s maybe a tad youngish now, with more grassy notes. More ‘taste of yellow’ as well
timer Finish
long, candied, gingery and still a bit farmy, with a little peat as well
