Tasting Notes

Colour

straw

air Nose

very different. Very nice but less precise than the others, with whiffs of old motor oil, ‘dad’s garage’ (I’m sure you see what I mean), green oranges (Hermès have got a perfume that’s named Eau d’Orange Verte and that smells a bit like this) and a kind of metallic smoke. A little butter too, green tea cake… Again, it’s unusual. With water: gets paraffiny. Scotch tape

restaurant Palate

very strange. Again something plastic-like, bitterish, kind of chemical… Another accident? With water: ermnlblmnrbrf… Some good Ardbeg with a layer of… yeast? Plastic? Leatherette? Really on/off, sometimes it’s pretty good and sometimes it’s really awful

timer Finish

quite long, with notes of tinned sardines on top of these strange chemical notes
