Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
floral, very heathery, mildly honeyed and slightly peaty and mentholated, with this wee rubber that’s sometimes to be found in ‘natural’ HPs, very far from being unpleasant. Flinty, mineral, waxy, almondy (marzipan) and a little coastal (sea breeze). Bitter oranges. Kind of ‘rural’ as opposed to the officials’ more civilised manners. With water: a little more straight oak and even more menthol. Farmyard (rural indeed). A farm on a coast. High quality nose
restaurant Palate
fan-tas-tic attack. Lemon balm, fresh mint, dill, lemon and ginger cordial, macaroons… Spearmint, limejuice, white rum, liquorice, cinchona, maraschino… The best mojito ever? Extremely good in my opinion. With water: gets a tad rougher, waxier…
timer Finish
very long and rather salty but anything has an end, alas (except sausages that have two, as our German friends use to say.) Maybe a little bitterness in the aftertaste
