BULLES DE RUCHE Eau-de-Vie de Miel L'Amazone

Nose : Beehive, honeyed, woody, floral. The first nose is marked by light vanilla aromas: still warm meringue, barely toasted almonds and crème brûlée. The woody side has a particular depth on aromas of honey: honey, beeswax, pastry and sweet spices: cloves, caraway, apple cinnamon crumble. When aerated, the aromatic palette leaves more room for delicate floral aromas: violet and elderberry, yellow lime blossoms and aged meads: fig leaves, dates.

Palate : Soft, sweet spices. A silky, soft, almost sweet attack; the cursor is clearly on the honey and its floral complexity: potpourri, bramble flowers, lavender honey with butter. Then comes the nougat side of the honey, its association with the wood giving a framework to the sweet spices perceived on the nose, notably cinnamon, caraway, and accents of young nuts pulling slightly on balsamic notes.

Overall : Persistent. Crème brûlée, gingerbread and slightly smoked honeycomb. We also perceive dry spices of ginger, cardamom, and fig leaf and bitter orange. On the length, bitters emerge that recall old dry meads.
