Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
light amber
air Nose
starts on full vanilla mode, with some hot butter and oak. Tarte tatin, caramel, vanilla crème… Getting a little sour after a two or three minutes, and very grainy. Quite narrow, in fact, too bad… Hints of liquorice
restaurant Palate
quite nicer than the nose suggested, even if quite watery. Some nice liquorice roots, dried fruits, caramel, vanilla crème, and yes, quite some oak and white pepper. It d evelops on crystallised orange zest. It’s not as complex as its older brother but rather enjoyable and satisfying. The finish is quite long but there’s perhaps too much caramel. A nice mouth, very compact and appealing; too bad the nose was so simple. 81 points . Glenlivet 12 yo ‘French oak finish’ (40%, OB, circa 2003)
