Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

this is lovely, with polish, beeswax, black tea with vanilla and wafts of liquorice and violet, then a pack of menthol cigarettes. Truly a lovely nose, rather complex, very well put together. I fear it casts quite a long shadow over poor little Green Meadow

restaurant Palate

good presence, less precise than the nose but still well built, rather on green peppercorns, grape pips, dark chocolate and very oaky tisanes, quite marked by cinnamon. A few bits of walnut, then it turns more herbal, a touch bitter but in a good way. Raw cocoa powder

timer Finish

medium length, still rather dry. Liquorice wood, black tea, cinnamon, fir honey, lemon marmalade and green pepper in the aftertaste
