Tasting Notes

The Panel enjoyed this a great deal. The nose delivered sweet pea flowers, cloudy lemonade, pear fondant, apple mint and Scottish export beer with a twist of orange. The palate was deliciously new-make oriented, but accompanied by a prevailing luxuriousness from fine sparkling wine, nutmeg, mandarin oranges and thyme crushed by limestone. Water gave the nose slices of pear, gummy bears and an effervescent gin and tonic with guava. Retaining its mouthfeel after reduction, the new-make sweet cereal opening persisted, followed by peach cobbler, yet more sparkling wine, the taste of sun-baked conifers and a light, dry spice.
