Tasting Notes

Colour

deep gold

air Nose

fresh and rather clean, starting on unexpected whiffs of peat, then apple compote and old walnuts. Something ‘antique’ in this one. Goes on with toasted bread and a little mint, before it gets maltier and slightly orangey. Impeccable dryness at this point. Gets also very coffee-ish after a while. Very nice!

restaurant Palate

good body but it’s more ‘simply’ malty at the attack, with also some orange marmalade and, alas, quite some cardboard and flour (dry and ‘mat’). Also a pleasant honeyness in the background. Dried apple slices, also this coffee and hints of mint, even a little verbena

timer Finish

unexpectedly long, more coffee-ish now, as well as quite malty. Chicory
