Tasting Notes

Colour

straw

air Nose

this one immediately reminds me of the newish official ten. It’s got the same balance between vanilla and acacia honey on one side and melons and peaches on the other side, all that being coated with a mixture of cedar wood and light brine. And that works perfectly well, with a feeling of fullness despite the relatively narrow profile. Very nice. With water: superb! Sea water and almond oil, what a perfect combo. Admirable freshness

restaurant Palate

oh yes, it’s the official ten at cask strength. Melon liqueur, maple syrup, tangerines, vanilla, honey, rhubarb jam, even a little pineapple… All that is excellent. With water: same, just excellent

timer Finish

not the longest but still admirably fresh
