Tasting Notes

Colour

pale gold

air Nose

I'll say it, I find this quite nice and even pretty complex, with a blend of brine, lemon juice, oyster juice and fresh butter. It's only mildly smoky but all this works. Lapsang souchong tea. Very clean nose

restaurant Palate

a little weaker, and maybe a little too sweet/sweetish (lemon drops), but it's pleasant. I find quite some pepper, but rather less brine/salt than in the nose. Less coastal notes for sure

timer Finish

short and a little tea-ish and chalky. Loses steam
