Tasting Notes

Colour

straw

air Nose

ah yes! Less woodwork so to speak and more spirit in this version that’s both fresh and complex. Fresh fruits (I get oranges and bananas but also butter pears), classic but not excessive vanilla, sweets (liquorice, violets, raspberries) and a rather soft spiciness involving cinnamon and maybe touches of cardamom. Goes on with more maple syrup and whiffs of freshly cut grass. Works very well so far

restaurant Palate

once again, this is pretty perfect, sweet but not dull, fruity, fresh, very well balanced. I get vanilla fudge, a little caramel (or rather light toffee), maybe a little white chocolate, crystallised oranges… All that on a bed of ginger, lemon balm and cinnamon

timer Finish

rather long, with more pepper and just a touch of salt playing with your tongue
