Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
ah yes yes yes! Wonderful notes of fresh almonds, olive oil, high-end vanilla (not wood vanillin), nougat, marzipan, kumquats, figs, dried apricots… and all that is very elegant. Vin jaune. With water: fab! A kind of very old, very noble, very precious herbal liqueur.. Maybe Black Balsam (do you know that?) More humus as well, just like in the SMWS. A movie-nose
restaurant Palate
perfect! Rich but nervous, with very obvious notes of mirabelle eau-de-vie, other plums, barley water, honeydew, mint, liquorice… Very perfect. With water: rather exceptional whisky indeed. Maybe not as 'wide' as expected but these notes of smoked almonds and mentholated grapefruits (I know, I know) are wonderful
timer Finish
long, rather more on the citrusy side. Green Chartreuse in the aftertaste, minus all that sugar
