Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
brighter straw
air Nose
this wee old one starts fully on soot and ashes, and would then move towards gooseberries, apples, melons and mirabelles, plus lemons and grapefruits. All this is perfectly perfect, well-carved, ultra-precise. With water: some fresh cakes kicking in, orange blossom panettone, croissants….. All while more fresh spearmint is coming thought, making it even fresher
restaurant Palate
sweeter, rather in the style of some legendary old officials distilled in the 1960s, with this perfect fresh fruits + honey combo. Apples are perfect, so are plums, so are heather and chestnut honeys, so is beeswax, and so are all these little herbal teas, between woodruff and just mint, which would add a feeling of yellow chartreuse. With water: we've reached the pinnacle of ripe fruits and honey combos. Mirabelles are just mad and running all over the place. Ripe kiwis too
timer Finish
long, with more fresh spices and waxes. The trademark heather honey keeps chirping in the background, together with a little mint tea
