Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
ristretto coffee. Really
air Nose
massive amounts of chocolate and prunes at first, a little gunpowder, then some kind of tarry gravy, fried onions, walnut stain, hoisin sauce, potting soil, tar liqueur… I find it really difficult to forget about the colour when finding descriptors in such cases, but it is a lovely nose. Where have we put our blue ISO glasses? With water: coffee dregs, roasted chestnuts, dried parsley, a little garlic (black, eh), game (grouse, eh), brake pad dust, more gunpowder…
restaurant Palate
extremely heavy, bone-dry, ueber-salty, immensely peppery, you would almost wonder whether they wouldn't have bottled walnut stain instead, indeed. By mistake, naturally. Concentrated Worcester sauce, umami sauce, plus some very old oloroso (solera started by Plato himself in about 400 BC). With water: some much drier Jägermeister and a lot of raw chocolate, like 90% cocoa
timer Finish
extremely long, saltier, meatier, with even more gunpowder and just sulphur in the aftertaste
