Tasting Notes

Rob Allanson

Taster

Nose: Takes me right back to church with polished pews and heavy old clothes. Dried fruit with the sharp tang of young pineapple. A rich, luscious creamy edge to it.

Palate: Sweetness and fruit notes. Red apples and grilled pineapples abound and then dried fruits with cranberries, apricots and peaches. Some rich dark chocolate coated orange segments and ginger.

Finish: Lingers with plenty of wood notes and dried cranberries.

Comment: Teetering on the sherry bomb territory, very lovely and very moreish.

Score: 8.4

Lyndsey Gray

Taster

Nose: Dried apricots, crème brulée, orange marmalade on toast and gingerbread. Hot sandalwood, roasted hazelnuts and teacakes balance the spicy with the sweet.

Palate: Spices with gingerbread and like sipping on a hot toddy with cinnamon, cloves and hot citrus. A sweetness behind the spice.

Finish: Warm and spicy with a buttery texture.

Comment: Drinking a hot toddy on a cold winter’s day.

Score: 8.9
