NARDINI Elixir China

$110.00

Founded in 1779, the Nardini house still uses the same steam fermentation and distillation process to produce its grappas, liqueurs, and this Elixir made from cinchona bark.

A pure moment of contemplative bliss, the remarkable spicy and powdery bitterness on the palate takes on almost mystical tones. To such an extent that, for a few moments, time seems to stand still.

The nose oscillates between freshly cut hay and dried fruits (fig, date) as well as exotic fruits (banana). Then, spices gradually take center stage. The palate exhibits an absolutely magnificent bitterness. Ginger, citrus zest, and cocoa powder come together in perfect harmony, energizing the tasting experience.

Description

Tasting Notes


Nose
: Powerful, rich. Notes of rubber—more precisely, hot tires—are in the fast lane. Sherry is also present (hazelnut, butter, walnut). In the background, the vibrant, youthful distillate of Ballechin reveals lush floral notes, beeswax, and camphor. Highly concentrated, it requires time to open up, then sunflower seeds and dark chocolate emerge freely.

Palate : Equally unique. Citrus zests (lime) and nutty notes (cashew, peanut) coat the palate. Smoke and peat have drawn much closer to the malted barley. It then develops licorice (zan), vanilla, and evokes a white spirit (kirsch, raspberry).

Finish : Slightly salty, resting on elegant bitter notes. Green walnut, gentian, and ginger form a lively and refreshing trio. Intensely floral (carnation, hyacinth) and malty (malt blossom), it makes us appreciate the long journey taken. Impressive!
