Tasting Notes

Colour

pale gold

air Nose

powerful and extremely close to the grains. Muesli and apple juice, then vanilla and gooseberries plus fresh oak. Needs water I guess... With water: exactly the same profile plus just a little mint. Hints of wine vinegar – which isn’t bad at all

restaurant Palate

very sweet spirit, with a lot of sweetened apple juice, touches of kiwis and lemons, vanilla, café latte and cane sugar syrup. And corn syrup. Creamy mouth feel. With water: became even creamier, it’s almost a liqueur now. More cane sugar syrup, barley sugar… Barley sugar liqueur?

timer Finish

rather long, very balanced, sweet, thick
