Tasting Notes

Colour

amber

air Nose

very expressive, starting with a lot of tobacco and hay, walnuts and mead. After that nice start it’s rather the strawberries and gooseberries that take control. Quite some wood polish as well and some faint gamy touches. A little soy sauce and balsamic vinegar. Very nice, the cask must have been great. With water: a little varnish coming out but other than that we’re more or less on the same profile

restaurant Palate

very rich, heavy, peppery, mentholated, with once again these sweet tart fruits (strawberries and such). Rather sweeter and fruitier than other ‘fino-ed’ whiskies I could try. With water: rich, candied. A little rum and raisins, pear eau-de-vie

timer Finish

long, with more honey, fruit sweets. The aftertaste is more drying, loses one or two points here. Pepper
