Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

maybe faint whiffs of volatile acidity (akin to wine vinegar) at very first sniffing but that goes way, leaving room for some rather gamy notes, civet, cured ham and then some unexpected mineral notes. Then overripe pears and apples, compote, ripe peaches… It’s a tad unusual but that’s an asset when you try quite a few whiskies. Right…

restaurant Palate

there’s a rather big peatiness now, which was relatively unnoticeable in the nose. Apple juice, marzipan, sweet pepper, paprika and then more and more dates, with some earth and roots in the background. Gentian and then more mint. A funny baby, this!

timer Finish

quite long, becoming frankly herbal. Thyme and garlic tea
