Serge Valentin (92)

Colour: gold, so very light for a 44yo ex-first fill butt.
Nose: good, it’s not a weird one. No heavy gunpowder, no horse dung, no manure and no old vase water, quite the contrary! Starts fantastically medicinal, with some camphor, some old cough medicines… Then we have a perfect association between quince jelly and Camel cigarettes (untipped, circa 1975 – I’m joking), and only then, something a little metallic. A fistful of old copper coins, perhaps. Pennies. You may add a few menthol-scented sultanas. With water: perfect. More hay, menthol cigarettes, a little shoe polish and a little dried meat (there, the old style is coming out).
Mouth (neat): no weirdness either, even if it’s a tad drying right from the start. Pepper and cinnamon on apple pie, more quince jelly (no, even more than that), raisins, brioche, cane syrup, maybe even agave syrup… It’s all perfectly rounded and, dare I write this, smooth. With water: and it swims perfectly well! Superb notes of chamomile and lemongrass come out.
Finish: long, never too dry and never too oaky. Miraculous. Fab mint in the aftertaste.
Comments: I don’t think it was first fill. But who am I, it’s a great, great bottling. Loved the menthol.

Tasting Notes by the Bottler:

Colour: Pale gold.
Nose: Fresh with pronounced hints of toasted malt. Some ripe summer fruit influences with an earthy edge.
Palate: Subtle hints of black pepper, with a delicate Sherried edge. Well balanced and smooth.
Finish: Long and smooth.
