Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
sumptuously old-school with a puff of cigar smoke rolling through some rather earthy teas (think some stormy old pu-ehr), then a saucy shift towards marmalade jus, roast duck à l’orange style, ha, followed by those wonderfully evocative dusty old tomes and glossies banished in your attic. Drifts of wax and beehive honey appear too, as though a rogue swarm had taken up residence in the rafters half a century ago. Right…
restaurant Palate
classically salty, metallic, loaded with chalk and concrete dust, and that familiar photolytic tang you sometimes get with some old bottles (taste of light). But here it's briskly corrected by a jolt of spicy beef broth, straight from a Bangkok street corner (that's enough two-penny travelogue, S.) With that lush oiliness you only find in those venerable blends where the malt content did the heavy lifting
timer Finish
curiously persistent, as if someone had sneakily boosted it to 45% vol., with the orange bouncing back to tango with the mineral notes and bouillon spices
