Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
dark amber
air Nose
textbook stuff, with that rather bourbony side (I know), occasionally found in these ultra-high strength ex-sherries. Nail polish, hot mustard, slightly singed walnuts, candle wax, fresh paint... It’s a touch brutal, but what did we expect? With water: what a turnaround! Here come the little broths, poultry in mushroom sauce, Turkish coffee, soy sauce… In short, all the things we love in these Glenlivets from SV
restaurant Palate
let us pray... Okay, it’s rich, obviously extremely powerful, with those nail polish notes reappearing, kirsch straight from the still, chocolate… I shan’t mention Mon Chéri (too late, S.) but you get the picture. With water: again with the return of the chicken stock, parsley, nutmeg, European oak (but that’s probably American), marmalade…
timer Finish
long, bordering on vinegary, with lashings of coffee and bitter chocolate
