Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

superb! There’s this very peculiar scent that only comes with old bottlings and that’s hard to describe. It’s not really OBE, it’s rather something that’s between orange peel, candle wax and old turpentine but that’s none of those. Maybe ‘old book and antique shop’? The whole is also rather phenolic, delicately smoky, with touches of cigarette tobacco, old pu-erh tea, old tin boxes and biscuits. Quite some presence but it’s no bold whisky. I hope the palate won’t be too dry. Oh, and a little parsley coming through after a while, which I always like

restaurant Palate

hey hey, it’s not tired at all! There might be too much caramel in this, which is even more obvious when you compare this with the Cardow that’s coming up, but otherwise it’s quite perfect, nutty, roasted, honeyed, malty and chocolaty, with notes of plum spirit and green bananas in the background. Also quite some herbs, a little thyme…

timer Finish

medium long, quite caramelly. Toasted bread, overripe apples and a little pepper. Black tea
