Rob Allanson

Taster

Nose: Lime marmalade, toast and honey, reminds me of throat soothers.

Palate: Orange peel, lime cordial, toffee notes abound. Gentle and elegant.

Finish: Quite short but packed with flavour, fruit and gentle wood spice.

Comment: A superb example of well thought out and careful blending.

Score: 8.9
