J.P. Limouzin 'Powered by Pasquet 61 carats Lot 62' (50.4%, Asta Maurice, cask #AMF009, 342 bottles) Five stars
Right this is either a 62 year old 1961 or a 61 year old 1962. And not 100% sure our dear Belgian friends got the word 'Limouzin/Limousin' right, but after all we're having a hard time writing Westwleteeren too. UPDATE: label just in it's well 'Limouzin', apologies! Colour: deep gold. Nose: high precision, almost in all simplicity here and now. Quince jelly, acacia honey and mirabelle jam. That's pretty all but no probs, on the contrary. Bauhaus spirit, as we sometimes say. With water: who's been using a cognac stencil on an early-to-mid-sixties refill cask of Balvenie? Acacia and elder blossom honey and liqueurs may have been added too. Mouth (neat): same kind of narrow high-precision profile that works greatly. Angelica, grapefruits and pine needles this time. Brrr… With water: it's the freshness that remains impressive but I'm not sure water was needed. We'd like to meet the cask. Flower jellies, oriental pastries, mirabelles, some tea tannins… Finish: done and dusted, do not add any water to this one. Comments: amazing. Sadly I've waisted a part of what I was having using Vittel, entirely my bad (no it's Vittel/Nestlé's fault, naturally). Very great drop, the Belgians are stealing the show once more.
