Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

ah, more dimension. That's the cask speaking. Malted barley (yeah, that's not the cask), chocolate, cigars, walnuts and hazelnuts, then some apple pie straight from the oven covered with some vanilla ice cream and some honey sauce. A little regressive, but that's a compliment. Childhood memories. With water: a little more green maltiness

restaurant Palate

rich, malty, with quite some sweet oak (the bottler's signature), vanilla, coconut, overripe apples, and some kind of green spice cake. No, not space cake. With water: all good, oranges, apples, honey, malt, and maple syrup. You cannot be against that

timer Finish

medium, a tad greener and maltier. A little sweet beer (very fruity IPA, such as Anchor's)
