Florian's tasting notes
The dress is amber. The tears are fine and very slow, numerous.
What a gourmet nose! Ripe banana and melon. Then a fresh, floral bouquet of violets and lilac. Complex and deep too, spices like cinnamon, incense, caramelized butter and then cake batter.
On the palate, it's greedy, with an all-encompassing, silky texture. The flowers are impressive: lilac, violet and jasmine. A fruity, pastry landing: fudge, melon and banana. Finally, licorice, cinnamon and rye for a fine finish.
The finish is long and pleasant, carried by sweet licorice and cinnamon. Retro-olfaction offers a lovely jasmine note.
"Superb whiskey, very well balanced, its roundness never sickening. Lots of floral freshness. The fruitiness is of the finest effect. Such an aromatic palette and such good length in the mouth at this price, it's a gift..."
