Tasting Notes
The initial sharp tingling sensation on the nose quickly developed into orchard fruits, sun-warmed straw, dried wax flowers, black liquorice and malty biscuits. On the palate it was fresh, sweet and fruity, with flavours of peach schnapps and apricot liqueur next to pain au chocolat and sultanas. The long finish delivered freshly squeezed mosambi juice (sweet lime) with honey and mint leaves, creating a mosambi mojito. Following reduction we found aromas of boiled citrus-flavoured sweets, mint leaves, custard cream biscuits and tropical fruit granola. To taste it was sweet, like a French lemon cream tart topped with fresh berries which had been brushed with warm orange jam to create a gorgeous glisten.
