Tasting Notes

Colour

golden amber

air Nose

something a wee tad metallic at first (old tin box, old kettle), then many walnuts, old boxes of pipe tobacco, and chocolates. More classic than this couldn’t possibly exist. With water: more towards cocoa powder and earth. Wandering throughout a warehouse in Jerez, very near the oloroso soleras

restaurant Palate

massive whisky, starting right on chocolate and oranges (and Jaffa cakes), going on with many roasted nuts (peanuts and pecans first), and getting then rather meatier and almost umami-esque. Malt extracts, Maggi, black pepper… With water: very good, even meatier, with notes of salty bouillon and bone marrow

timer Finish

long, perfectly dry, which is, erm, perfect
