Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
deep gold
air Nose
a very punchy, quite bourbony and rather varnishy nose for a start, with a lot of vanillin and touches of marshmallows and strawberry sweets behind all that. It’s also slightly molassy, with maybe some cane syrup and then more and more maple syrup as it tends to mellow and become sweeter and rounder. White chocolate. With water: very nice, more complex, between various tobaccos, oranges, soft spices and touches of rhum agricole
restaurant Palate
very strong oak influence, between ginger, cloves, strong tea and cocoa powder. Then walnuts, old and fresh. Plenty of walnuts… And cinnamon, Muscovado sugar… The oak is very forward. With water: smoother, with the ginger becoming sweeter and rounder. A little leather
timer Finish
quite long, even more on sweet oak, apple peel and a little honeydew. Not as drying as I had feared
