Tasting Notes

Colour

white wine

air Nose

starts very ‘funnily’, on ultra-big notes of both milk and white chocolate as well as vanilla pods. Huge cask influence it seems. We’re closer to grain whisky this time, even if there is a slight maltiness as well as hints of smoke and hot coffee. Very little flowery and/or fruity notes that I can get, contrarily to what happened with this one’s sister casks

restaurant Palate

ah, this is quite better, exactly between malt and grain whisky indeed. Vanilla, tinned bananas, cinnamon, milk chocolate, hints of mint, tea, the whole getting maybe a tad too tannic after a moment but more complex at the same time. Liquorice and marshmallows

timer Finish

rather long, a tad grainier at this stage
