Tasting Notes
Colour
pale amber
air Nose
ah yes, it’s one of these extravagant ones. Incredibly fragrant, with as many dried fruits and flowers as God had created. Not much else to say, except that it’s also amazingly ‘beehivy’. You know, honeys, waxes, pollens, nectars… And no stings. Utterly seductive, Raquel Welsh made whisky (stay sober next time, S.!) With water: awahouwahoo! (that was a lost tribe’s dialect)
restaurant Palate
it’s not whisky, it’s syrup, or a liqueur. And many spices, and mirabelle liqueur, and mead… Now, maybe the oak is a tad too loud? Just a tad? With water: hurray! Not more big oak, rather (even) more jams, honeys and ripe fruits. What a cavalcade
timer Finish
long, smooth and honeyed but not lumpish at all. Superb ‘responsiveness’
