Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
I find this one extremely chalky at first sniffs, while candied citrus and yellow fruits (plums perhaps) would then get in and create a more civilised composition, a little less rustic than other Ben Nevisses that we love so much (some friends say that I can be rustic too). Bergamot sweets, some herbal/floral notes (borage), then a little caramel cream, gentian and mocha. So, a relatively gentle Ben Nevis but with all its attributes. Pretty gorgeous on the nose
restaurant Palate
just to contradict me, a few dusty/dirty notes at first, some pepper right from the start, and only then some rounder, sweeter, more candied notes of crystallised tropical fruit and dried citrus. Bits of zests, with some saltiness too. Nah, in fact it's a typically robust Ben Nevis on your palate. Even some prickly mustard is there
timer Finish
long, peppery, with more dirty oils. No spent frying oil, though… Very peppery aftertaste
