Tasting Notes

Colour

pale amber

air Nose

it’s rather more discreet than its sisters, less emphatically honeyed and fruity and rather more on light Havana tobacco and old leather, although some delicate notes of tangerine liqueur, verbena and wormwood do arise after a short while. Also nice touches of old pu-erh tea, leaves, humus… Curious about the palate, it could be worn-out with such a nice but delicate nose

restaurant Palate

not at all, not at all! It’s actually fuller and more vibrant, with very nice notes of herbal tea (many kinds, rosehip, thyme, maybe anise…) and dried fruits. Spice mix for mulled wine, speculoos, sultanas, a little tobacco again… All that before it becomes a little drier and maybe a tad too much on cinnamon

timer Finish

medium to short, even more on cinnamon. Also raisins
