Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
deep amber
air Nose
perfect cake-y sherry, a style that goes well with Bunnahabhain. Remember all those glorious official bottlings of some 1960s vintages? 1963? 1968? What I’m finding here is some copper (grandma’s kettle), sponge cake, puréed chestnut, ‘smelling an engine’, lamp oil, vinyl, vin jaune or manzanilla, Cuban cigars, pine cones… All that is pretty beautiful! With water: subtle patchouli and leather, old books, mutton suet, chestnuts…
restaurant Palate
yep. Bitter oranges, sour fruits, custard, butterscotch, fig arrak, panettone, kougelhopf, fermenting sweet grapes (raisined wines, straw wine, Carole Bouquet’s Pantelleria…) With water: gets a little more chocolaty and coffee-ish. Orange squash
timer Finish
medium, really all on Panettone, orange blossom water, oriental pastries, coffee…
