Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
amber
air Nose
same ballpark but there’s also struck matches and gunpowder at very first sniffs, even a slight meatiness ala Mortlach, then a similar development on small garden fruits and toasted brioche. Also maybe a little more polished wood, humidor, cellulose varnish… I also find traces of bananas flambéed. With water: big notes of both old bourbon and rum, all that may come from the wood. A true world spirit! Having said that, the struck matches haven’t left
restaurant Palate
same feeling of coffee as with the Adelphi but this time there’s quite some kirsch in it. Would go on with more liquorice then, as well as a spicy woodiness that’s very close to the Adelphi’s again. Cloves. With water: once again it got bourbony and this time we have quite some coconut liqueur (Malib... er…) as well as these coffee-ish tones. Quite some orange marmalade as well
timer Finish
relatively long, woody and spicy. Cloves, cinnamon, coffee and a little cumin
