S12U23 ★

YELLOW STRAW, TOPAZ

Nose

Side by side, sensual affinities between grain, the emanations of meadow flowers and citrus fruit. It's rich, powerful and pleasantly rustic. Rustic because wild carrot flowers and dandelions rub up alongside exotic wisps, developing heady, earthy and very fruity aromas all at once. These sensations lead us to believe that we are in the presence of a whisky with a rural tone. A heady countryside with autumn, as if encased in our new bottle. 

Mouth

The evocation of the essence of a sachet of dried flowers left there in the old cupboard gives way to the freshness of a juicy fruit and the sweetness of a sour pear... 

Finish

A complex finish for this fairly dry, straightforward whisky. The succession of flavours described unfolds in an orderly style, one after the other. Marked hints of citrus fruit and bitter orange peel tickle the tongue delicately, as if to support vibrantly the spelt and its biscuity bread sensation. This finish also gradually blurs the gustatory boundaries between pear and quince, close cousins in perfect symbiosis in this glass of S12U23*.
