Tasting Notes

Colour

straw

air Nose

I'm finding this wee musty and mashy side that's not uncommon in the regular 12 as I remember it (which I haven't got on the tasting desk, sadly), also a little damp cardboard, newspapers of the day, ale, cider and a little coal smoke from an old stove. A little old-school, I would say. Also whiffs of plasticine

restaurant Palate

starts well, with good body and quite some ripe apples and pears, as well as plums, but the dry mustiness tends to take over, with more cardboard again, grey pepper perhaps, a little leather, bitter oranges, some drying ashes… The 40% vol. make for an obvious handicap here, this old-school style may need a slightly higher voltage

timer Finish

rather short and dry, grassier, it's not gaining any points here. An unexpected saltiness in the aftertaste
