Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
Full gold
air Nose
This one’s bound to unite everyone. Think apricot tarte, mango peel, Meursault (get your wallet ready), clay, Riesling, fresh plastic, Marlboro, crushed slate, oyster mushrooms... With water: white chocolate and Darjeeling. Perhaps a hint of salsify, but that’s an acquired taste, isn’t it
restaurant Palate
Magical. Wonderful tension, apricot eau-de-vie (watch your prussic acid), green apple, Jamaican rum (fancy that?), lemon, bergamot, and citron liqueurs... With water: touches of chlorophyll (Wrigley’s gum) and skins of banana, mango, and even pear. Polish and cigar ash in the background, reminding us it’s unmistakably Ben Nevis
timer Finish
Good length and slightly camphoraceous with bitters, amaro, Cynar
