The panel were very happy to taste an example of this cult distillate from refill wood. The initial nose was full of luscious maple syrup, new leather, white chocolate, pineapple jelly, wine gums and ripe green melon. Behind that we also found some vanilla sponge cake and freshly varnished hardwood. Water evolved the fruitiness towards an overtly and explicitly tropical direction. Toasted coconut, kiwi, mango and fruit salad juices. We also noted caramel toffee and lemon meringue pie. The neat palate showed a big and generous spiciness at first, then dried apple rings, elderflower cordial, coconut shavings, guava jam, tiger balm and delicate menthol freshness. Reduction brought a slightly herbal profile along with pecan pie, powdered ginger, fruity pink peppercorns, peach schnapps and boiled lime sweets. This particular expression was distilled from Concerto barley.
