Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
frankly, this smells like wood matured vodka, or maybe Zubrovska. It’s not that it’s bad, quite the contrary, but it does not resemble whisky. Maybe hints of sultanas. Let’s see what happens after the addition of a few drops of water… Oh, it really changed, as it got a lot more vegetal and ‘tertiary’, with unusual notes of lovage and parsley, hay, cured ham, beef bouillon… I guess it’s the ‘Californian sherry’ that comes out. Dare I say ‘pemmican’? Very unusual and very interesting in any case
restaurant Palate
it’s completely different and extremely coffeeish. Kalhua at ‘cask strength’ this time? Coffee-schnapps. With water: doesn’t change as much as on the nose, still on coffee liqueur but also on prunes and plum pudding
timer Finish
long, fruity and coffeeish again – and in a very nice way
