Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

maybe a tad hot despite the low strength, but this blend of sawdust, vanilla and fudge works well. A little cologne, rye bread indeed, some corn syrup (but indeed it's fully rye), bits of amaretti and macaroons, marzipan… Indeed it is pleasant, but not extraordinarily rye-y this far

restaurant Palate

sweet, easy indeed, with some vanilla and some sawdust again. I've always had the impression that fresh wood was not very easy to balance when the whisky is heavily diluted, as it is here. Some sour spiciness, ginger… Touches of lavender and pepper coming out

timer Finish

medium, first on tea tannins, then with more fruitiness, orange drops, more corn syrup…
