Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

well, I’m not impressed, this one seems to be much closer to grain than to malt actually, which stresses the stills’ importance over the raw material. Plum spirit, vanilla and maybe something unusually perfumy (rosewater). Orange blossom. With water: it’s the wood that came out. A little methanol, wood alcohol

restaurant Palate

very spirity (pear spirit) and very sweet. Bourbon. With water: a little better, resembling a medium-range grain whisky and maybe also some Irishes. Vanilla, dried bananas, coconut liqueur and oak (nutmeg)

timer Finish

medium long, very linear
