Tasting Notes

Annabel Meikle

Taster

Nose: Madeleine and lightly baked sponge, fudge and pineapple Tarte Tatin. Lightly scented talcum powder, buttery caramel sauce over vanilla ice cream.

Palate: Peach and apricot crumble with fudge sauce. Plump juicy fruitiness with water, strawberry and plum with a lightly spiced custard.

Finish: Luscious and viscous.

Comment: Tender hearted and loveable. Delicious.

Score: 9.2

Neil Ridley

Taster

Nose: Creamy coconut, under ripe bananas, honeycomb and malty caramel.

Palate: A very refined and quite rich malted note, followed by chilli flaked chocolate, some sweet vanilla pipe tobacco and an oily note, topped with some light tropical fruits.

Finish: The lighter fruity notes develop into a clean white oak dryness.

Comment: Delicate and easy to overpower, so give this your fullest attention.

Score: 8.2
