Tasting Notes

Nose

There’s a good mix of fruit at first: both warm brambles and some papaya. Then a little green Starburst, honeycomb, and almonds.

Palate

Creamy and coating, with lots of refreshing citrus — grapefruit peel especially — to balance out the caramel and dark fruit notes. A real mix of flavours but well balanced still.

Finish

Some Honey Nut Cheerios and nutmeg spice before a little bitterness.

Comment

I really liked this one — there was a lot going on.
