Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
pale gold. Not pink, hurray!
air Nose
and that worked. No Port, rather this very typical, slightly mouldy profile that you would find in some very old wine cellar, then a feeling of smoky/fruity herbal tea, then some mint and camphor, perhaps one raspberry, and certainly cigars. Sooty cigars. Love it that the Highlandparkness made it through the Port
restaurant Palate
but it worked! Did they monitor this cask every single week? Air-dried red berries, blood oranges, a touch of caraway, a medicinal side (eucalyptus), a hint of thyme tea, half some blackcurrant gum… This should have been unbalanced, but it isn’t, at all
timer Finish
long, and using the full power of your mind, you could even find wee notes of Touriga Nacional
