Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
ah yes, this is wonderful! Very ‘full’ and very complex right at first nosing, displaying notes of (at random) leather, coal smoke, lit cigar, toffee, apricot pie, espresso, tar and lemon marmalade. Then we have a little mint (menthol actually), meat sauce, shoe polish and something slightly animal (hare belly, as they say.) I wouldn’t say this is a surprise, but still…
restaurant Palate
it’s quite exceptional again! Starts on something lemony ala Rosebank or Bladnoch, very nervously, and gets then beautifully fruity and sort of phenolic at the same time. Orange marmalade, lemon marmalade, liquorice, green apples, molasses, pineapple drops, fruity olive oil… And then we’re back to ‘full lemon mode’. I’m sure I’d have said this is a top-notch Rosebank, had I tried this Lochnagar blind
timer Finish
long, balanced, very lemony (more on lemon pie) and a tad grassy for good measure (hints of angelica.)
