Will spark a conversation

This sample was all over the place nosing neat. We got chilli milk chocolate, dried figs, maple syrup, thick treacle, rich raisin purée and burnt pie crust. On the palate we tasted a sharp sourness which was not unpleasant but certainly surprising. We had a throw-together salad of rocket, beetroot, walnuts, croutons and feta with a honey balsamic vinaigrette. Following the addition of water, we opened tins of peaches and pitted black cherries as well as bags of salt and vinegar crisp. The taste was like a juniper red wine jus, thick yet silky smooth and with a balance between acidity and sweetness. This will certainly start a conversation or, indeed, keep it going.
