Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
pale amber
air Nose
a stunning combination of umami seasonings, mushroom powder, bouillon, lovage and marzipan. Then add boot polish, deep and savoury ramen broths, resinous fir woods and camphor. A sherry cask from a galaxy longer ago and further away than Grogu's. With water: gets immediately fruitier with kumquat, orange marmalade, plum wine and then hints of five spice and treacle. Savoury, hugely aromatic and fantastically detailed
restaurant Palate
hugely fat, spicy, dense and leathery sherry. Full of tars, herbal liqueurs, ointments, putty and even touches of iodine and roof pitch. Salted almonds, marzipan and pristinely salty liquorice. Extreme, powerful and totally brilliant! With water: saltier, earthier and more bitterly herbal now. Also still impressively medicinal and phenolic. More assorted oranges and plummy fruit notes too
timer Finish
stunningly long, crisp, salty, resinous, medicinal and herbal. Old school, umami and rancio drenched sherry flavours glowing in the aftertaste
