Tasting Notes
Colour
deep amber
air Nose
I think I never nosed a whisky that was reeking so much of chocolate. It’s quite amazing in that sense and if you like chocolate, you’ll love this. Behind the chocolate: blackberry jam, minerals (basalt?), peonies and fresh asparagus (NOT cooked ones). Spectacular. With water: swims like a champ! Red berries, blood oranges, garden bonfire, rocks, touches of leather… And a feeling of ‘high-end sangria’. Frankly, it’s a great nose
restaurant Palate
the ‘mixture’ worked perfectly well! Nice combination of peat, strawberries, pomegranates, white chocolate and pepper, with quite some Seville oranges in the background. Tonic water. Very, very nice combo. With water: excellent development, grassier and spicier, with touches of tequila and a bitterness that hints at Madeira indeed. Very unusual and very good
timer Finish
long, a tad saltier now, grassier, more peppery, with some lemon in the aftertaste
