Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

well, it's rather dry, but rather dry like an old grassy Demerara rum can be dry. There are actually touches of old rum, I also find a little olive oil, ink again, old toolbox, old garage. It's only after a good five minutes that more fruits come through, together with a little menthol. Raspberries and wasabi, how does that sound?

restaurant Palate

fruits! This time it's not a dry and drying old Banff, or say the dryness is balanced by citrus fruits. Phew! So lemons and tabasco, bitter chocolate with tangerines and peppered blood oranges. I wouldn't say it's an easy whisky, but the fruits really lift it and make it much more 'playable' than its bros. In the background, the usual pepper and mustard as counterpoints

timer Finish

quite long, lemony and peppery. Also a metallic fruitiness - that would be mangos, I guess
