Tasting Notes

air Nose

this oldster starts on notes of old rum, with almost as much banana as in the 1972 as well as notes of dried pears and a little caramel. Fresh and aromatic. With water: strange that water blocks it, letting just more vanilla come through. Not a great swimmer

restaurant Palate

beautiful attack, obviously rather oaky but it’s all smooth. Great fruitiness, sweets, mirabelle pie, then white pepper. With water: takes water better than on the nose. The pineapples are back

timer Finish

medium long, on vanilla, bananas and pineapples, ‘though it’s not quite ‘tropical’
