The aroma reminded one panellist of sparkling Normandy cider with the natural scent of pears combined with exotic fruits like mango and pineapple and the sweetness of honey. Really juicy, fresh and zingy on the palate neat, now more like an old-fashioned cider with the juice of a lemon, slices of orange, Angostura bitter, dark cherries and a dash of whisky. Water released a lovely light floral and herbal sweetness that we compared to witch hazel next to vanilla cream, coconut water and juicy mango slices. To taste, lightly spiced white chocolate fudge and juicy strawberries served with a slightly tangy sugar and lemon syrup.
