Tasting Notes

Neil Ridley

Taster

Nose: Big emulsion note, followed by toasted vanilla, a little anise and nail polish remover/acetone. Dig a little deeper and some tinned apricots emerge.

Palate: Very strong and powerful, with a sour cherry and then some creaminess, with a little vanilla pipe tobacco popping in at the end. Needs water to open up. With a dash, mandarin orange segments and sour cherries develop, with a toasted wood note.

Finish: A hint of creaminess, alongside those cherries.

Comment: Direct, if a little one-dimensional.

Score: 7.6

Rob Allanson

Taster

Nose: Soft and gentle at first, then candy rock cigarettes. Honey Nut cornflakes, demerara sugar. Steamed milk sweetened with honey. Glacé cherries.

Palate: Very focussed on the sweet side, with something just a touch sour. Dutch waffles, warmed rye bread. Tobacco and aromatic cocktail bitters.

Finish: Lavender bread with dark orange blossom honey.

Comment: Great stuff, packs a punch with a lot of flavours.

Score: 8
