Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
deep amber / rosewood
air Nose
Big, sharp, concentrated and punchy. Almost like roof pitch and raw tar blitzed together. Beyond that though there’s red fruit cordials, strawberry jam, fruity black coffee, hazelnut liqueur, cornbread and mushroom soup. Pretty extreme but also very good. With water: suddenly very chocolatey. Lots of praline, coco pops and a sly gamey, meaty side that comes in with a big hit of umami in the back of it. Slight sawdusty note as well though
restaurant Palate
pure treacle, salted liquorice, cola syrups, root beer, herbal ointments, wood char and bbq embers, burnt heather and some old, dark shilling ales. Immense peppery heat, some nippy tannins and yet it manages to still feel balanced despite the weight aspects on all sides. With water: lots of coffee, red fruit jams, bitter chocolate, herbal cough medicine and things like jasmine, aniseed and liquorice
timer Finish
long, menthol tobacco, earthy, cured meats, bouillon stock, dark soy sauce and smoky bacon
