Tasting Notes

This bottle is limited to 2 per member

First, we noticed the gorgeous colour which was followed by the slow-moving think oily legs when swirling the glass a little. We baked banana bread muffins, Caribbean coconut tart and sweet potato pudding. On the palate, a fruit trifle made with pineapple, papaya, mango, coconut and plenty of spiced rum. Water added the scent of Curacao bitter orange peel, candied kumquats and quince jelly while to taste like a bar of white chocolate filled with a delicate passion fruit cream. This took us all, right from the start until the finish, to a tropical destination. After twenty-three years in an ex-bourbon barrel, we transferred this whisky into a 1st fill Sauternes barrique.
