Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

oh well, that worked. No Ikea-y oaky extravaganza, rather a subtle herbal combination that would remind us of some old 'Tarragone' yellow chartreuse. Hey-hey! Only wee touches of coconut, chamomile, lemon tarte with meringue, stewed rhubarb, then wormwood and woodruff. That's all pretty perfect – an octave, you say?

restaurant Palate

very good. Herbal teas, lime, thyme, honeysuckle, pastis, absinth, verbena, then some mentholy honey of some sorts… It's just that it would tend to become a little bitter and seriously gritty. Bitter herbs, green pepper, cinnamon mints…

timer Finish

long but frankly bitter this time. I'm not sure this baby could stand this much oak on the long run
