Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
very perfumy, almost like cologne for a moment, but gets then fruitier while never losing those rather nice perfumy notes. Lots of heather, orange juice, praline and caramel, freshly cut apple… Very fresh, getting more vanilled and buttery after a while. Faint mashiness but the whole is very expressive, almost restless
restaurant Palate
orange is the keyword here again but the attack is a little rough and slightly rubbery, with notes of traditional fruit spirit like they do in the farms over here (notes of distillation). Then we have a lot of caramel and also salty touches, roasted nuts, black nougat, chocolate fudge… The finish is rather long, chocolaty and caramelly, with always this slight rubberiness… 83 points . Highland Park 1987/2005 (51.3%, SMWS #4.102, 'Smoked duck a l'orange') I’m curious about this duck…
