Taster
Nose: Freshly cut daffodils, acacia honey, aniseed and a drop of acetone, eventually give way to a more beguiling syrupy stewed apple note. Sweet and unctuous.
Palate: A lovely rich mouthfeel with spiced apple this time, golden syrup, sweetened Turkish coffee (with a little cardamom infused in) and a touch of menthol right at the back. \r
Finish: Quite dry, with a citrus bite and drying oak covering the tongue.
Comment: Fresh, summery and very easy drinking. Nothing to dislike here, at all.
Score: 8.4
