Tasting Notes

Colour

pale gold

air Nose

not much difference with the ‘native’ versions. A tad more buttery and, okay, notes of ripe apples. Pleasant I must say. With water: grassier and even grainier

restaurant Palate

much more interesting than on the nose. Bubblegummy, notes of cherry-flavoured beer (Kriek) this time. Spanish apple liqueur (manzana verde). Or should I say ‘calvados’? With water: it got really good now, creamy, fruity and jammy ala Balvenie. Good, medium long finish on the same flavours
