Tasting Notes
Colour
light gold
air Nose
this oily fatness once more, with a PX and an oloroso that behaved here. In truth styles are similar, this one being just a tad bigger (that's the higher strength) and more on pastry, cakes and just malt. Other than that, there's beeswax, a little olive oil indeed, pistachio oil, and really no big sherry. With water: green teas, distillate sulphur, paraffin, some yeastiness, all that being awesome and a shining example of a malt that was meant to be a greatly textured filler for better blends. Well, I suppose
restaurant Palate
awesomely fruity this time, full of apples of many kinds. Hints of fat gueuze and, really, apples. Love apples. With water: more nuttiness, from the sherry I would suppose. Malt, ale, small apples, dry cider (brut), grape pip oil… Here, the texture is almost as important as the aromatic profile
timer Finish
not that long but rather fat, with more vegetal oils, apple peel, and the most discreet touch of mint. Fresh walnuts of the aftertaste, most certainly from the sherry
