Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

very nice but the oak's quite loud, as we get a lot of pencil shavings and eucalyptus at first nosing. Then more Seville oranges and ginger, game, ham, mead, chocolate, honeydew… Some aspects are very nice and it's certainly complex spirit, but I fear the palate will be too oaky after such a nose. Biggish oak in the nose can be great - and quite disastrous on the palate in my opinion

restaurant Palate

indeed, this baby's very oaky. Acrid, tannic, tea-ish… All that makes for a funny contrast with the notes of bubblegum and marshmallows that start to rise after a moment. Liquorice allsorts

timer Finish

medium long, still tannic. Strong tea, grape pips, menthol…
