Tasting Notes

Colour

straw

air Nose

powerful! Mud and porridge, soaked buckwheat, fresh concrete, leaven… Ah? With water: broken branches and roots… Stays very austere and grassy/earthy

restaurant Palate

not much to do with the nose, it’s a candy bomb! Jellies and sweets everywhere, cassis, lemon, pears, oranges, cranberries, guavas, papayas, cherries… Rather extreme in that respect. Two whiskies in one? With water: fruit syrups, many of them. Cranberry seems to have the upper hand

timer Finish

long and extremely bubblegumy. We’ve got one called Malabar, well this is liquid Malabar. More lemon and pineapple sweets in the aftertaste
