Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

geranium and barbecue, charcoal indeed, soot, curry, linseed oil, Artichoke and eggplant, Barbour grease, tomato leaves, a bowl of lentils... It's quite odd on the nose, but not unpleasant, it's more like a cordial

restaurant Palate

honestly, it's funny, quite 'lab', indeed a bit sweet, but with a strong smokiness, something other than peat, around rubber, vegetables on the barbecue (eggplants again) and a bit of salt. Well, I find it quite humorous and rather the work of a very friendly mad scientist, like in a Tim Burton film

timer Finish

quite long, still with this very rubbery smokiness, and hints of grapefruit in the background. Sweet vegetables in the aftertaste
