Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

bang. Remember Macallan As We Get It? We’re in the same ballpark, with a similar age (probably) and a similar profile, that is to say a fully spirit-driven, totally polished by time only –both in cask and in glass- style. Raw malt, citrus, green apples, rocks… And a lot of alcohol, even after all these years. So, with water: no. I mean yes, but it gets a little raw and rough, as if 50 more years in glass (or 10 years in oak) would have been needed. The palte will tell us – once reduced

restaurant Palate

as creamy as honey, as citrusy as Corsican citron squash, and as powerful as a GT40. The texture is incredible, indeed it’s almost thicker than oil. With water: quite. It’s superb, but it’s a little too simple to reach the 90-mark, I’d say. Lemon marmalade, a few bitter herbs, some raw barley, and minerals

timer Finish

quite long, rather on limoncello this time. High strength limoncello, of course
