Tasting Notes

Colour

white wine

air Nose

this one is very different although the background is more or less the same. Quite some vanilla, caramel and praline, nougat, ground coffee… And then it gets much fruitier, almost perfumy and rather hot and spirity after a moment. We have then the same ‘mashy’ notes as in the James MacArthur, with also quite some spices (cloves, hints of cardamom) and whiffs of mint. Very ‘natural’ again

restaurant Palate

oh, now it’s much more interesting. Quite some punch and a bold, sweet and spicy attack. Imagine a blend of caramel and honey with tons of various spices, curry, ginger, cardamom again, pepper… And then we have a fruity cavalry with lots of quince and quite some apple jelly, greengage and a beautiful, long finish on bergamot sweets and spearmint. Wow, too bad the nose was a tad simple, otherwise it would have earned more than 88 points . Highland Park 19 yo 1986/2005 (55.3%, OB for Maxxium Holland, cask #2793, 1120 halves)
