Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
amber
air Nose
aaargh, this is flabbergasting. It’s a little less complex than the 21 yo OB, but it’s got this je-ne-sais-quoi (how do you like my French?) that makes it totally perfect. More costal notes, more polished woods, more essential oils from the oak, more camphor too. The whole just holds together and complement those majestic mangos that reign supreme once again
restaurant Palate
pah-pah-pah, truffle soup and mint sauce, plus mead and chestnut purée. Add a little lemon juice, a pinch of salt, a slice of Seville orange, and some kind of ancient mint cordial, the ones that used to cure just anything according to old ads. Brilliant whisky, exceptionally tight, with an oak that’s just about to start to consider taking over. Like, in five years
timer Finish
medium, more herbal, spicier, and perhaps a little oakier indeed. Thyme tea and the lightest cinnamon mints in the aftertaste
