Tasting Notes

Colour

coffee

air Nose

holy f… err, fudge! Nosing the exhaust of an E-type, first series. Then cocoa pods, just-roasted coffee beans, and roasted chestnuts. Splendid ;-). With water: we’re in a Jerezan bodega, nosing old having said that… There’s even a little castor oil

restaurant Palate

Ellingtonian. Starts smooth (thanks Juan Tizol) and then starts to roar and bite and punch, with no off-notes, only loads of chocolate and marmalade. A little deafening after thirty seconds, this is almost becoming Iggy’s Stooges playing Raw Power. Bye-bye Johnny Hodges. With water: M.a.c.a.l.l.a.n. Coffee, raisins, salt, chocolate, marmalade, smoked beef… Totally impeccable

timer Finish

very long, on the same flavours, with a slightly peppery aftertaste
