Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
pale gold
air Nose
less expressive than all the others but very clean, developing on quite some vanilla, custard and nougat. Some cut grass and then quite some almonds/marzipan. Orgeat syrup. With water: once again, the farmy side of the spirit comes to the front and remains there even after fifteen minutes (as you may know, most whiskies get farmy and even soapy when you just added water but all that usually settles down after a few minutes). Candy sugar, crème brûlée, apple pie
restaurant Palate
a good, punchy attack, creamy, slightly smoky and as liquoricy as the MoM. Quite citrusy as well, fresh oranges, barley sugar, marzipan… With water: ditto. An added greenness (apple peelings)
timer Finish
rather long, with more and more grassy notes. Fresh walnuts and green apples, barley sugar
