Tasting Notes

Colour

amber

air Nose

a more civilised version this time but it is well in the style of the best sherried Mortlachs, with this distinctive meatiness mixed with quite some coffee, malt and chocolate. Hints of tar and smoked tea (lapsang souchong) that may hint at ‘good’ sulphur but it’s in no way sulphury. With water: more leather, very old wine (old Bourgogne), civet, game… It’s complex

restaurant Palate

just like the W&M, rich, creamy, sticky. Chocolate, kirsch, Schwarzwalder cake and Seville oranges. Millionaire shortbread. With water: typical development on fruit jams and oranges plus touches of leather

timer Finish

very long, a tad more orangey than the W&M. Orange squash and chocolate, a little ginger
