Tasting Notes

Roses, violets and cherry blossom blended with sweet apples and milk chocolate biscuits, while malted barley joined breakfast cereal in a pine forest. The palate, however, was thick with caramel sauce, rich honey and toasted coconut amid a peppery backdrop of ginger, green chillies and wintergreen. Earthy herbal notes emerged with water as dried sage, thyme and tarragon danced with red liquorice, gooseberry jam, and rum and raisin ice cream. The palate now expressed cloves, spearmint and ginger biscuits with star anise and black peppercorns. Blood orange joined dried banana chips while toasted pine nuts and oak tannins framed the finish.
