Tasting Notes

Relaxing on a mattress of vanilla sponge we drifted off into a dreamy world of mellow marzipan surrounded by dried rose petals, baked apple and bread and butter pudding generously coated with cinnamon sleeping powder. Sweet memories of toffee apples and fudge revived the sensations of crystallised ginger, nutmeg and dried coconut, before lemons and limes met aniseed and curry leaves. Adding water brought lemons, grapefruit and hot tomato plants to the fore, while marzipan murmured in the background alongside linseed and beeswax. We relaxed further as honey drizzled over coconut husk, cloves and liquorice, before oaky tannins and creamy vanilla lasted until sunrise.
