Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
light gold
air Nose
more gentian than in a gentian eau-de-vie from Michel’s in La Chapelle sous Bois, and just as many maritime elements as in a heaving seafood platter. The rest splits itself between sesame oil and fairly gentle citrus fruits. With water: hessian sack and brand-new jumper in pure virgin wool
restaurant Palate
a landscape not far from that of the finest officials. Peppery presence, iodine, zest, smoked almonds, a few drops of limoncello… With water: still that relative softness, a perfect balance, saline, mineral, crystalline and most delightfully fermentary (fresh bread)
timer Finish
not eternal but very clean, if you see what I mean. Lemon cocktail, lapsang souchong, seawater and gentian eau-de-vie. Cheers
