Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
it’s more massive, it’s fuller, more compact, less subtle, and yet superb. Rubber bands, new car, roasted chestnuts, earthy tea (pu-her and such), old marmalades, Spanish ham (belotta stuff), old embrocations and ointments (who knows what they used to put into those things)… and then, as often with the older bottles, more pine-y notes, saps, resins, camphor… With water: sit and listen to this whisky. Not that the story will always be the same, mind you
restaurant Palate
totally a-m-a-z-i-n-g. Huge mentholness, immense sappy side (fir liqueur), all dried fruits anyone could think of (starting with figs, as almost always), and then a total maelstrom of tiny spicy flavours. Caraway seems to be fly amongst them, as well as pink pepper. Careful, these ones will almost always dominate you, there isn’t much you could do against that. With water: they get Asian. Sauces, chutneys, creams, spicy stuff…
timer Finish
I’m reminded of some old Cuban cigars they used to make when the Russians were still delivering ‘what was needed’ to make them. No, not drugs
