Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

coffee-schnapps! And bourbon, as the toasted American oak is very ‘loud and clear’. I think it’s another funny one, with these unusual eau-de-vie-ish notes (maybe kirsch? Slivovitz?) that sort of contradict the bourbon notes. Also whiffs of old rose perfume, musk and then grenadine. Yes, a lot of grenadine syrup!

restaurant Palate

very, very funny and, I must say, rather to my liking. Starts right on grenadine and golden syrup, then we have more pineapple liqueur and cranberry juice, while the American oak stays quieter than on the nose although there’s something pina-colada-ish. Ahem

timer Finish

long and sweet, fruity and frankly more tropical (coconut oil, pineapple)
