Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
dark amber
air Nose
big, starting right on whiffs of rubber (bicycle inner tube) and struck matches, then more blackcurrant bus and various herbal teas as well as a little chocolate and raisins. Quite some sulphur, actually. It’s also rather winey. After 15 minutes: more balsamico, lovage and soy sauce. Less sulphur. With water: all on old vinegar and rancio now. Maggi. Quite spectacular but you have to like this kind of decoction
restaurant Palate
very rich, thick, with a lot of sherry, bitter oranges, tannins, pepper and ginger. Bites your tongue a bit. With water: extremely powerful, even when reduced down to 40%. What a beast! Huge pepper notes
timer Finish
very long, with a lot of lemon this time as well as some herbal tea. Big cinnamon and pepper in the aftertaste. A lot of lemon in the aftertaste
