Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
I wouldn’t say there’s much happening when you nose it neat, it’s a little middle-of-the-road, with a little vanilla, a little apple pie, touches of tea and a tiny-wee metallic touch. Although it tends to become a little more grassy/leathery after a few minutes. Right, seconds. So it’s ‘nice enough’. With water: the oak comes out more. Wet wood and a little dust. Maybe a notch musty
restaurant Palate
starts with sweet malt plus a little grenadine or maybe strawberry syrup and becomes then rather oakier, with some greenness and quite some nutmeg and ginger. Mustard. Good structure and body but it’s a rather narrow profile. With water: no changes or very little. Maybe more porridge and a little lemon. Sweet bread
timer Finish
medium, malty, with some white pepper and cinnamon. Black tea
