Tasting Notes Before:
Colour: Young Sauternes
Nose: Grassy green tea and jasmine flowers, apple peel, vanilla sponge cake, some punchy tropical notes and a touch of muscovado sugar.
Palate: Peppery lemon oil, pineapple jelly, cider apples, a little mineral with some camphor and candlewax.
Finish: Long and slightly off-dry, fruit cordial and preserved lemon, white pepper spice, a little chalk and the grassiness of the nose returns.
Tasting Notes After:
Colour: Pale gold
Nose: Dry sherry, prunes, chocolate and dark roasted malt. A lovely waft of wax on antique furniture, quite fat with a touch of sweet miso.
Palate: Powerful and rich. Moist dark rye bread, tobacco, leather and cloves, some cracked black pepper and blackcurrants, thick and chewy mouth feel.
Finish: Fruitier than on the nose and palate, sugary crystallised tropical fruits and overripe oranges. Very satisfying.
