Tasting Notes

Colour

pale straw

air Nose

this one’s very different from the Boutique-y, with much more barley, porridge, mashed potatoes, milk and custard, then a fruitier side. The whole remains very, very barley-y. With water: more custard, mashed celeriac, cooked turnips… In all cleanliness. Sounds funny but I really like this

restaurant Palate

phew! I wasn’t too fond of the nose but the palate’s easier, sweeter, fruitier and zestier. The same kind of fizziness as in its bro, as well as these jellybeans, liqueurs and marshmallows. Very sweet but remains fresh. With water: very good now, on orange liqueur, a little pepper, a little ginger and touches of coconut

timer Finish

quite long, with more spices, esp. pepper and ginger
