Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
starts much nicer than my old notes suggested but it is not the same batch. A tad spirity at very first nosing but soon to become rather pleasant, malty and slightly smoky, with hints of leaves and a little leather polish. Also hints of orange peel, then roasted honey-covered nuts as well as just faint hints of tinned pineapples. Nothing to do with the very first batch, as far as I can remember. Gets more spirity again after fifteen minutes, a little rough
restaurant Palate
quite good but I feel we’re closer to the earlier batch, with a mix of bitter/burnt oak and, just like I wrote in 2004, ‘cheap rum’. Apple juice, bubblegum, butter cream, a little lemon fudge. It was probably too young at the time and I’m not sure it could stand the wood treatment
timer Finish
rather long, a tad better now (strawberries) but there’s still some bitter oak in the aftertaste
