So subtle it's barely there, but an intriguing mystery.

Nose: Lime cordial, blackcurrant Chewitts and warm plasticene. All in wispy, etheral levels.
Palate: Sweet, then grassy then dry.
Finish: A ghost of dry maltiness and hot hay.
Comment: So subtle it's barely there, but an intriguing mystery.
Score: 7.5
Taster
Nose: Pretty. Cereal, macadamia nut, meadow flowers, white fruit, light apple, herbal, medlar jelly. With water there's increased perfume reminiscent of an old-fashioned talcum powder flowers and some lime zest.
Palate: Sweet and light with a soft elegant mid-palate. Hints of vanilla, coconut and flowers.
Finish: Sweet then lightly drying.
Comment: Gentle with excellent balance. Ridiculously lovely, like an Edwardian beauty.
Score: 8.3
