Review and Tasting
Sampled on 26/08/2019
Appearance:
Clear golden.
Aroma:
Honeycomb (inside of a crunchy bar), butterscotch, saddle leather and rolling tobacco with muscovado sugar. Faint sweet raisons.
Taste:
Caramel, new leather, grassy, white pepper and cinnamon spice with notes of rubber tyre (in a good way).
Aftertaste:
Dry oaky finish with caramel and cinnamon spice.
Overall:
Initially you might find Leblon Reserva somewhat over-oaked, dry and spicy. However, as you continue sipping (which you'll inevitably do) so sweet grassy muscovado sugar flavours step in to balance the oak.
