Tasting Notes

The nose has the bright promise of spring into summer – sun-warmed straw and fresh-cut flower meadows; moist gingerbread and marshmallow teacakes. With water, flowers nod and laundry flaps in a warm breeze, with summer gorse and sea buckthorn berries, lollipops, donuts and honey. The palate is different – a mix of spicy warmth, citrus and bitter chocolate – lime, chilli-macerated cherries, dark chocolate gingers, cinnamon, liquorice and clove; then tree bark, tea bags and menthol on the finish. Water sweetens it, bringing out cola cubes, brown sugar, coltsfoot rock, Dentyne gum, lebkuchen and dark chocolate cherry liqueurs – ginger and chilli warm the finish.
