Tasting Notes
Colour
straw
air Nose
very interesting, rather all on fruit skins, including apples and walnuts, as well as a little paraffin and natural artisanal soap (Alep’s – poor Alep!) A little leather too. In short a rather austere and pretty introverted Glenlivet. After five minutes we’re also finding notes of beer and cider. With water: chalkier, with touches of patchouli and eucalyptus. Bidîs! A little Goa, perhaps…
restaurant Palate
big sharp fruits this time, rather exclusively lemons and green apples. Some rhubarb too, well, anything green. Greengages, for example. Add a drop of honey and one of maple syrup, plus a droplet of tabasco sauce that makes it much spicier after three minutes. With water: isn’t this rather Longmorn? A wee touch of tomato
timer Finish
rather long, leafy, fruit-peely. Tense and sharp
