Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
quite a lot of oak in this one at first nosing, but Lochside’s distinctive tangerines and grapefruits are well there, lurking in the background. Pencil shavings and tangerines, a funny combination that does work quite well. The good news is that as often, the oakiness diminishes (or our olfactory bulb starts to filter it out), and in this case it leaves room for more citrusy notes and jasmine. Maybe also touches of curry, allspices…
restaurant Palate
big fruits, oranges, grapefruits, tangerines, lemons (right, I won’t quote all citrus fruit) as well as the sweets and marmalades made thereof, plus touches of ginger and white pepper. Yet, it’s no real fruit bomb. I’d say almost. Probably not hugely complex but the profile is perfect
timer Finish
medium long, more on lemon zests and just a tiny salty touch. Ginger. Strange return on vanilla in the aftertaste
