Tasting Notes
A curiosity dram that took a bit of unravelling. On the nose, we found beeswax, flower stems and rose hips, serrano ham with melon, green peppercorns and delicate pine-cone smoke. The palate also had wide-ranging appeal – from sweet, viscous and floral (elderflower syrup, geranium leaves, rose Turkish delight), to black pepper, strong menthol lozenges and herbs flung on a fire. The reduced nose found fruit punch (with pears and apples), sticky toffee pudding, lemon barley sugars and wholegrain wheat breakfast cereal. The palate gave us Greek yoghurt with pear and honey, combined with earthier hints of rapeseed oil, dried tarragon, grilled aubergine and nduja sausage.
