Taster

Nose: Vintage clothes shop (the wool jumper section), this is all big oak, youth and jammy tones. A hint of IKEA warehouse and flat pack furniture.

Palate: Mushroom soup with a tablespoon of sugar, this is very meaty but also very sweet. An odd combination.

Finish: Powdered ginger, nutmeg and all spice.

Comment: This is not to my taste...so onward to the next one.

Score: 6.3
