Tasting Notes

Colour

full gold

air Nose

this one is rather more floral and fragrant than its older siblings, with notes of orange blossom, nectar, overripe apples, roses, liquorice wood and a little strawberry jam. Some vanilla custard as well, just like in the ‘Gallery Lounge’. With water: very nice herbal notes and a little aniseed. The oak comes out a little more as well. Very pleasant

restaurant Palate

creamy yet nervous, somewhat in the style of the Whisky-Doris, that is to say with many fruits including lemon coated with pepper and ginger from the oak. With water: gentler, more on marzipan and stewed fruits. Light honey, vanilla, a touch of cinnamon

timer Finish

rather long, a tad grassier. Lemon zests in the aftertaste
