Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
full gold
air Nose
this time, it’s Earl Grey tea and sandalwood and cedar that lead the charge, with the fruitiness naturally taking a bit of a back seat. Plenty of herbal infusions, linden blossom, chamomile, rosehip becoming increasingly prominent, a touch of almond syrup... I suppose it’s the interplay between the fruit and the sherry that’s given rise to all this. It’s rather splendid! With water: a very faint smokiness emerges, no idea where from, though we do know that there were indeed peated Caperdonichs at one point. Lovely whiffs of blond tobacco as well
restaurant Palate
the fruitiness is far more assertive on the palate, with passion fruit and mango appearing to take the upper hand over the sherry on this occasion. Very good, with a dash of lemon blossom honey to (somewhat) rein it all in. With water: no smoke to be found on the palate, I must have imagined it. At any rate, all this is excellent, veering off towards yellow fruit preserves (plums, apricots, pears) brightened up with a squeeze of lemon juice
timer Finish
same again. Lovely length
