Tasting Notes

Colour

full gold

air Nose

whiffs of pencil shavings – which suggest a newish seasoned cask – and then chocolate, with some rather spicy pumpernickel and fruitcake. Cloves, Vicks, ginger, flints, walnuts, and more wood shavings. I don’t think this is a good old butt that’s been kept for fifteen years, just between us

restaurant Palate

indeed, notes of spicy new oak, caraway, ginger, turmeric, then oranges, more pumpernickel, rye, and more chocolaty walnuts

timer Finish

long, with something Asian. The spice combo, I guess
