Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

roughly the same kind of profile as most other old un-sherried HP’s by Duncan Taylor, only a tad more phenolic and fragrant at the same time. Hints of old roses and liquorice allsorts, then mastic and pine resin, marzipan, strawberry jam… Quite a lot happening in there. Hints of smoked tea… Settles down on the usual beeswax, honey and apricot pie. Little woodiness, which is great news

restaurant Palate

the mouth feel isn’t really big, maybe even a tad weakish, but the fruitiness is perfect (oranges) at the attack. Sort of collapses after that, except for the pleasant ‘orangey honeyness’. Little tannins, which makes that the whole stays clean and fresh

timer Finish

short but clean
