Nose

Touches of rancio, but dominated by burnt pastry, demerara sugar, caramelised fruit sugars, barley sugar and oak. With water some green fence posts, wheat, and creme brulee.

Palate

Butterscotch and pine/oaky grip. Rich and certainly sweet but the feeling is it\ris all oak driven.

Finish

Orange blossom and cereal. Oak.

Comment

It has a sweet punch and some will love this overtly oaky style. I'm not wholly convinced about what it's done to the overall balance.
