Filliers 5 Years Old Oude Graanjenever (1 Liter)

Tasting Notes

The nose of Filliers Oude Graanjenever is slightly whiskey like with grain, and the heat/sharpness of cinnamon (think without the sweetness, or with the sweetness toned down). Grain and wood notes in the mids with a dusty, faintly, spicy assortment of low notes. Very rich, warming, and quite inviting.

On the palate, we have a generally mild start. At first, hints of oak, revealing some nutmeg, brown sugar, sweet corn and orange. As the mid notes fade, rye toast, burnt oak, and warming baking spice. Delightfully warming, very bright with a great deal of complexity. Rich, warm texture. Quite nice.
