Official Tasting Notes
Nose
Warm baked custard, peppered strawberries, digestive biscuits, soft oak and a short sherbet tingle.
Palate
Thick rosehip syrup, Demerara sugar developing into a spicy, gooseberry dryness. Wonderful balance, nothing dominates. After water intensified syrup and green fruits.
Finish
Very Long
