Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
incredibly fresh and vibrant, thanks to some very well-behaved refill wood, I would suppose. Think ripe bananas, papayas, spearmint, touch of fruity varnish/strawberries, sauna oils, almond paste, fresh putty, marzipan (Mozart Kugeln), then raisins, late-harvest pinot gris, quinces, baklavas, orange blossom water, very old cognac, vine peaches… By Jove, this is endless!
restaurant Palate
some mentholy oak at first, as in almost all very old spirits, but that's absolutely not detrimental to the amazing citrus and tarter tropical fruits that would then appear one after the other. Also many herbal teas looping back around to the gracious old oak, chamomile, thyme, cinnamon and aniseed, melissa, green tea… It would then get a little more piney and resinous, still very gracefully
timer Finish
medium, with some rather sublime cough medicine, old Bénédictine, lime juice… And cognac
