Tasting Notes

Rob Allanson

Taster

Nose: Tea soaked prunes, a little hint of tobacco and some gentle smoke. Fatty bacon cooking downstairs. Honeycomb and milk chocolate. Then an earthiness with leather bindings, leaf mulch and damp wool.

Palate: Nutty at first, paper bags full of chocolate coated hazelnuts and candied almonds. Warm, fresh sourdough bread with slivers of mango.

Finish: Long and fruity, slowly dries leaving walnut skins.

Comment: That nutty side of this is wonderfully engaging.

Score: 8.3

Lyndsey Gray

Taster

Nose: Toasted rye bread with lime jelly and smoked almonds all bundled up in a lettuce wrap. Sweet, fruity and beautifully floral with some notes of lavender, aloe vera and lastly strawberry laces.

Palate: Floral on the palate with lavender infused earl grey tea, peppermint and honeysuckle. A warming spice follows with toffee creams, fresh ginger and chewed tobacco.

Finish: Soft and luscious with sparkling ginger.

Comment: In a nutshell, a little bit of everything.

Score: 8.8
