Tasting notes

Appearance: Colourless, clear, brilliant Nose: A powerful nose with earthy and tuberous notes, softened by a sweetness reminiscent of molasses. Palate: The attack is intense and rich, with the tuberous and molasses notes lingering on a full-bodied, slightly rough texture. A hint of bitterness adds complexity, whilst the alcohol remains well integrated. The finish is long and lingering. Overall impression: An intense and balanced overall impression, with a pronounced earthy character, where the sweetness tempers a slight bitterness against a rich and expressive body.
