Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
the cask, although refill, was pretty active here, but it rather imparted floral notes, as well as herbs. I’m thinking rosehip, honeysuckle, eucalyptus (big time), then rather lapsang souchong, and a welcome bready side. There’s something ‘crafted’ to this nose. With water: gingerbread and toasted pumpernickel, while someone’s smoking his pipe not too far away
restaurant Palate
indeed, the cask was very active, and that worked. Again, we’re rather in crafty territories, and I cannot not think of Westland’s peaters. Blueberries, ginger, smoked meats, caraway… All very good. With water: spiced bread, gingerbread, Maggi, caraway, miso soup, pepper…
timer Finish
long, salty. Asparagus soup (with croutons!) plus anchovies and crushed black olives. That’s right, tapenade
