Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
red amber
air Nose
rich as a barbecued Mars bar dipped into coffee liqueur, I would say. In the background, mint drops, tarmac, liquorice extracts, stout, caraway oil and the fattest oyster there ever was. With water: nicer, better balanced, more Caol-Ila-ish, that is to say rather fresher and more coastal. Lovely black chocolate and espresso coffee. Cloves
restaurant Palate
could I have a spoon please? Extremely heavy and spicy, hugely extractive, ridden with pine resin, tar and liquorice, menthol, gingerbread and, well, yet another liquefied Mars bar. Big size. With water: ginger and leather coming out, cinchona, tonic water, cinnamon, bitter oranges… Now, nothing abnormal here
timer Finish
long, on bitters, Coca-Cola (not just the colour), chocolate, marmalade and coffee. A salty touch in the aftertaste
