Review and Tasting

Sampled on 25/08/2014

Appearance:

Clear pale amber.

Aroma:

Lightly malty, honey, caramel, zesty orange and lemon with elegant oak, hazelnut and faint Swan Vesta match box. Water opens but little changes.

Taste:

Creamy malty palate with lightly cinnamon and nutmeg spiced dry oak, zesty lemon, peachy fuit, vanilla, toasted coconut, desiccated coconut and milk chocolate. Water kills creaminess and intensifies spice.

Aftertaste:

Cereal matiness, cedarwood, toasted almond, cinnamon and black pepper spice.
