Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

it's as if someone threw fifty Lindt chocolate bars into the cask. Besides that, pepper and coriander seeds lead the dance, along with the usual mild "à l'ancienne" mustard. A bit of damp earth. With water: yeast, sourdough! Magnificent

restaurant Palate

I believe the distillate tames the cask, and we won't complain about that. Very pretty lemons and grapefruit, green pepper, a hint of horseradish, brine and green walnuts. It's a little rough, which we love. With water: not too much water please. Green apples, pepper, ashes, charcoal

timer Finish

the same, with a bit of curry and, let's say it, some very maritime sherry. Pass the langoustines
