Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
apricot
air Nose
good fun, but indeed it is a little brutal. I seem to find some kind of smoky fudge, certainly a lot of milk chocolate, some rye for sure and some buckwheat too, some very rich modern-style beer (I know zilch about beer but I've tried a MIkkeler (sp?) the other day that was nosing a bit like this…) Something wild too, almost animal. With water: a wide range of gingerbreads from all over Europe, from Rotterdam to, say Vienna. Did I ever tell you that I'm a confessed sucker for gingerbread?
restaurant Palate
too strong for me but this heavy bourbon from Holland seems to work. Huge gingerbread, Stolle, violet drops, marmalade, cinnamon rolls… Good fun, I'm sure. With water: ticks all my preferred boxes. Rich, spicy, honeyed, on breads, wild cookies, and of course gingerbread. Big black raisins too. Frankly, I would have said great yet crazy garage whiskey from Murica
timer Finish
long, just perfect, without any embarrassing woody notes. Lovely sweet spiciness that makes you think of Christmas. Yep I know this is the month of May. Only the aftertaste is a wee tad green and bitter. A wee tad…
