Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
light amber
air Nose
it’s a lighter, fruitier and more floral one again, and that might be the wonders of refill (vs. first fill). Smashing notes of quince juice (blended with apple juice, as usual), dried figs, papaya juice, then raisins and a touch of tobacco. Old Rivesaltes – if you never tried good Rivesaltes, now’s the time). Quite some rancio too, so this is rather cognac than armagnac (as far a neighbouring spirits are concerned). With water: the herbal side comes out, blond tobacco, herbal teas, a touch of fudge… All very fine
restaurant Palate
but seriously, folks, this is cognac de propriétaire brut de fût! Raisins, ripe peaches, ripe melon… There’s a lot of fun in this. With water: no, there is some malt indeed. A touch of putty comes out, maybe peach leaf tea, then bitter oranges… Classic dram indeed
timer Finish
long, spicy, with some pepper. Beyond that, Seville oranges, tobacco, maybe a little curry powder…
