Tasting Notes

Colour

dark amber

air Nose

rounder and cakier. We’ll mention dried bananas, dried figs, dried dates, pear cake, cappuccino, and puréed chestnuts. The best puréed chestnuts come from Ardèche, south of France. Did you know that? (hope the cheque’s in the mail, dear Comité Départemental du Tourisme de l'Ardèche). With water: superb! Earthy tea, cigar oil, leather polish… This was some cask. No pencil shavings this time, all for the better

restaurant Palate

totally rum! Really! And rather agricole this time, this is excellent. So sugar cane, obviously, dried bananas, and a few drops of coffee liqueur. And even, perhaps, drops of pineapple liqueur. I said ‘perhaps’. With water: swims extremely well, and gets lighter and even fruitier. Passion fruits and mangos, you couldn’t do better

timer Finish

medium to long, fresh and fruity, and certainly tropical
