Taster

Nose: A real creamy grain note, like porridge with whole milk. Cream cracker. Sponge cake with pear, and stem ginger syrup. Gentle notes of lemon, fennel, and mint.

Palate: Medium bodied. Rich orchard fruit – apricot, pear, plum – with buttery oat crumble. Thin, crisp vanilla biscuit and macerated strawberry. Orange polenta cake. Very subtle lemon, mint, and sultana.

Finish: Long, on apricot-topped Danish pastry.

Comment: Incredibly fruity, light yet syrupy. Delicious.

Score: 8.2

Taster

Nose: White flowers and oranges still on the tree. Leafy and grassy. Like walking in a citrus orchard. Vanilla sponge cake beneath.

Palate: Medium-full. Juicy orange and candied lemon. Honey-glazed flapjack and ripe apricots. Oatmeal with cream and raisins. Delicate spicy gingerbread notes.

Finish: Medium, on those juicy citrus notes.

Comment: “Oranges and lemons,” said the bells of St Clements. Juicy goodness with a touch of spice.

Score: 7.9
