Straw yellow in the glass.
Very fresh and floral on the nose, but anything but ethereal, with the alcohol content sustaining the aromas and making them compact, declined in rose, grassy carpet, drops of honey, peach, cereals, macaroons. Freshly cut wood. Very Spring-like, but without the Covid-19…
The alcoholic thrust warms the palate, stirring the soul with a touch of white pepper, while dried fruit (almonds and walnuts) and fresh fruit (peach again with pineapple) take on body, always lying on the grass. Citrus fruits pressed on wood with cereal crumble. More lively than on the nose, but always on refreshing tones, almost thirst-quenching (almost).
The finish is quite long, of cereal, peach, wood and grass.
A whisky that relaxes and teases, making you feel as young as its years, which in its blunt simplicity finds its strength.
