Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
gold
air Nose
fresh and pretty delicate despite the rather high strength, displaying vivid notes of acacia honey and tinned pineapples. Also touches of very ripe kiwis as well as quite some flower nectar and a rather discreet oakiness. Also some vanilla fudge and butter crème. Very ‘nice’ (I know that’s a catch-all word but it IS nice whisky). With water: more hay, chlorophyll, cut grass and leaves. Faint mouldiness, not unpleasant (which doesn’t mean ‘nice’). After a few minutes: more on orange juice
restaurant Palate
the oak’s striking sooner than in the nose but it isn’t very tannic. Well, there is quite some green tea and bitter teas (leaves, fruit stems) as well as notes of bitter burnt caramel but other than that it’s all on maple syrup, toffee and cappuccino. Very roasted, definitely. With water: became very cardboardy. That didn’t work!
timer Finish
medium long, on a little ‘mishmash’. White pepper, cardboard, orange zests and quite some paprika
