Tasting Notes

On the nose neat, we got a slice of walnut cake with icing sugar as well as ryebread with salted butter and marmalade. To taste, initially plenty of pepperiness, which soon dissipated, and a sweetness developed of honey nut cereal, apricot and sultana oat cookies with a finish of zesty harissa yoghurt dip. Water added the aroma of aniseed and almond liqueur, lemon curd and crème caramel with a spiciness still lurking in the background - the harissa was now in a spicy-sweet honey vinaigrette. A lot more balanced on the palate with sugar coated hazelnuts, coconut cream and we all shared a bag of salted pretzels.
