Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
amber
air Nose
once again, same territories. Chocolate, jams, earth (again, slight sulphur), tobacco and a little feeling of 'new plastic', or rather brand new car - with leather seats, mind you. With water: new tyres ;-). Seriously, there is something sulphury and tarry but it's really and asset in this context. Also a nice balsamico again
restaurant Palate
it's big and rich, not exactly refined, but it works. Arak, other oriental liqueurs and spirits, dried figs, ginger cake, limoncello… With water: cask strength orange marmalade ;-) and a few green spices. Certainly cardamom!
timer Finish
quite long, coating, with more ginger. Greenish aftertaste, loses one or two points here (Jaegermeister or even Underberg)
