Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
phew, we’re rather fine. A leathery smokiness with some sweet tobacco, fruitcake, and dried figs. Then pipe smoke, very dry raisins (no, those don’t smell the same), and a feeling of thick mud after some tropical rain. Autumn leaves, perhaps. With water: mushrooms, there
restaurant Palate
unlikely, but good. Sweet leather? Caraway cake? Notes of absinth? Thin mints? This is another whacky one, and frankly, anytime something sweet is blended with peaty whisky, we come close to disaster. Not quite the case here, but some sultanas seem to be waking up… aaargh, quick, water! With water: we’re okay! Nice old apples, cider, and some bitter herbs
timer Finish
long, but it gets bitterer. Jägermeister with half the usual sugar content (which is already a lot)
