Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
starts a little sour (cider) and even vinous, all that being pretty nice, before it gets waxier, as expected. There’s quite some vanilla too, some coal smoke, a little sea water, and then some smoked ham or even sausages (or Landjäger), something I hadn’t encountered before. I mean, in the official 14. The vanilla’s a little bolder too, I think. More rejuvenated wood?
restaurant Palate
good! Once again it is a little smokier, perhaps a tad bitterer too, salty and briny, with oranges, ginger, turmeric, hints of gin (they could do martinis), and then some vanilla again. The smoky waxiness kept the lead, but I would say this OB’s globally more ‘vanilla-ed’ than most, if not all indies
timer Finish
long, beautifully bitter. Campari (and gin). Some kind of readymade Negroni from Brora
