Tasting Notes

Colour

old

air Nose

starts fragrant and honeyed, but the oak is soon to strike a bit (vanilla, tannins). Very nice notes of apricot jam, acacia honey, then also a little salpetre, iron and coal. Keeps improving once the oak has vanished again, getting both rounded and vigorous, with more and more smoke and also a little ginger. An entertaining HP

restaurant Palate

big, peppery, salty and candied attack, certainly wilder than most official old HP’s. Then it’s big liquorice and pine resin (like if you swallowed a whole bottle of cough medicine), and then even more salt. Very excellent zestiness in the background (tangerines) and good oak

timer Finish

long, candied, spicy and resinous
