Tasting Notes

Colour

bright amber

air Nose

indeed, I like it rather better. Nutshell, less oak tannins, more bright fruits, both fresh and dried. There’s also more marzipan, coconut balls, then prickly pears, blood oranges, and just a nice box of Jaffa cakes. It’s got a Macallany side, but we’re talking older Macallan, like the old 30 blue label (and box). See what I mean?

restaurant Palate

it is a little oaky too, to be honest, but it’s still brighter than the 25, fresher, and simply nicer, in my book. Oranges, touches of tonic wine, caraway and cinnamon, a drop of Dutch genever (I owe you a very large genever session), and nice notes of mint-flavoured liquorice.

timer Finish

medium, rather on bitter oranges, quinine, and a wee bit of speculoos. Only the aftertaste is a little drying this time
