Tasting Notes

Colour

pale gold

air Nose

full-blown grapefruit and passion fruits. In truth, there isn’t much else, but that was more than sufficient. Maybe a drop of eucalyptus medicine or something. The smoke’s rather discreet. Perfect. With water: even more perfect

restaurant Palate

massive, extremely powerful (tastes like much more than 50%), and quite brutal. Grassy peelings, grapefruits, green lemons, an almondy grassiness, some fresh bitter walnuts, a spoonful of manzanilla, some mustard… Seizes your tongue. With water: do they have an Anti-Maltoporn Brigade on this island?

timer Finish

loses it a bit, just a bit. Maybe a touch of old cardboard?
