Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

pure honey at first nosing. I mean, really, plain and pure honey. Or rather a blend of various kinds of honeys, what we sometimes call ‘all-flowers’ (my dear dad used to be a beekeeper). And maybe tarte tatin and other rich pies… And maybe also a little banana flambéed

restaurant Palate

honey again, and big time, but it’s rather honeydew in fact, with these resinous and oily notes. Plenty of beeswax, propolis… The oak is loud and clear but it’s completely an asset here, it never ‘fights the distillate’

timer Finish

medium, still very honeyed, with a little mint in the aftertaste, from the big yet gentle oak
