Tasting Notes
At first nosing we found a hugely charismatic aroma full of treacle, pebble beach freshness, ozone vibes and lemony zing. Also noted were sea breezes, lightly singed heather and an underlying earthy richness. Reduction brought a softer side full of yellow fruitiness, cedar flowers, hardwood shavings, white pepper and green tomato chutney. When neat, the palate opened with a two-hander of lemon sharpness and chilli warmth. Then it evolved towards dried cherry with peppery and earthy undertones. In the background there were wee notes of dried mango and pomegranate. With water it eased and opened even further, featuring generous notes of golden syrup on raisins, black forest gateau, old fashioned cocktails and liquorice root.
