Tasting Notes

Colour

coffee

air Nose

well, this is simply some very classy, heavily sherried malt that could be anywhere between 15 and 30 years of age. Dates, prunes, figs and raspberry jelly plus milk chocolate and only the slightest touches of old balsamic vinegar. A little tar as well. With water: quite superb. A controlled mustiness comes through as well as earthy notes. Surprisingly complex. How old is this, again?

restaurant Palate

a rich, creamy yet very lively attack on mulled wine, strawberry jam (litres), blackcurrants and raisins. Goes on more on bitter chocolate and cloves as well as quite some cinnamon. Resembles some Alsatian (or German) Christmas cake – well call that Beerawecka. With water: pepper and ginger come through, together with more fresh fruits. Ripe mangos?

timer Finish

long, clean yet very rich, with the spices coming more to the front
