Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
full gold
air Nose
long story short, this is butterscotch, with mangos and honey. After that much expurgated version, let's dig a little deeper… So, beeswax, tarte tatin, ripe papayas and bananas, old Sauternes, ripe Provence melon, sultanas, plus a little metal polish, tiny drop of balsamico, eucalyptus… What's more, it seems that the spirit has digested the octave over the years in glass. Magnificent nose. What happened in the Land of the Scots, in 1972? Oh, I know, the Average White Band was formed
restaurant Palate
more, honey, more mangos, more sultanas, also oranges, small lemons, some pepper, a little grassy oak with a feeling of grape pips (It did not fully digest the octave after all, it seems)… Then grapefruits coming to the front
timer Finish
indeed, there is a little green pepper remaining, but it's still very perfect and very '1972'. More grapefruit in the aftertaste, perhaps even pink grapefruit
