Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
rich gold
air Nose
softer, rounder, and more immediately inviting than the ‘iconic’ Speyside, perhaps more suited to the lounge than the countryside. Roasted chestnuts, gentle pipe tobacco, a hint of floral liqueur (mullein), followed by delicate notes of beeswax and propolis. Then come the orangettes – candied orange zest dipped in dark chocolate – a proper indulgence. With water: touches of mint, camphor, and eucalyptus add a refreshing lift
restaurant Palate
black pepper takes charge straight away, soon joined by caramelised pecans and roasted hazelnuts. Another sinful treat. With water: back to candied oranges, alongside fir honey and a few drops of peppermint liqueur
timer Finish
long, with intensely steeped black tea asserting itself once again, accompanied by its trusty partner, pepper. Cocoa and mint linger in the aftertaste
