Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
office coffee
air Nose
well, it's not so dominant after all, and ultimately not immensely different from the 'refill' version. Naturally, there are more sultanas, toffee, as well as treacle toffee, but all this remains gentle and extremely sophisticated. Even the orchard apples make a noteworthy comeback. There are also pinecones
restaurant Palate
once again, it's not immensely different from its brother, but let's not forget that it's the same distillery and the same vintage. A bit more coffee, old armagnac, chocolate, and marmalade, with once more a presence of pine wood, as well as very dark tea, in the style of Black Assam. In the end, it is quite different and certainly a bit less delicate on the palate than its brother
timer Finish
we always fear that these old glories may crumble at this stage, but that's not the case. Medium length and a superb dark chocolate. The Black Assam makes a return in the aftertaste
