Tasting Notes

Colour

light gold

air Nose

once again, we're rather on some green oak spices. Grapefruit peels, branches, plantain bananas, mint, a little lovage, then eucalyptus again, green walnuts. With water: all good, with more honey and honeydew as well as overripe apples. So very 'Glenrothes' now. Milk chocolate

restaurant Palate

same style as the Inchgower, with a very nice lemony start (also tangerines) and a grassier development. Lemon sweets, green tea, green peppercorns, cough lozenges. With water: smoother and rounder but the mentholated side never quite leaves, which isn't bad news at all. Very pleasant freshness

timer Finish

good length. Orangettes (zests dipped into chocolate, how do you call that in English?) and this grassy/menthol aftertaste. It's quite malty too now
