Tasting Notes

Colour

deep gold

air Nose

Nordic crackers, oatcakes, rye bread, peanut butter, faint touches of fromage blanc. In short, this baby seems perfect for breakfast, the apricot remains discreet for the time being though I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s been overshadowed by the rye, as their aromas can indeed be rather similar (yes, really). With water: drier, more herbal and more vanilled. Hints of bitter almonds

restaurant Palate

much more marked by the brandy this time, very spicy, very peppery, very bready. That suits us well. With water: this is where it really shines, on gingerbread, rye bread, and indeed apricot, in the style of Jean-Marc Roulot’s excellent liqueur from Burgundy

timer Finish

long, very well balanced despite a slightly whacky streak. A miracle?
