Review and Tasting
Sampled on 29/10/2013
Appearance |
Clear, mid golden amber. |
Aroma |
Boiled sweets, vanilla, sandalwood and bubble-gum with waxy red apple skin and biscuity malt. Water amplifies sweet orchard fruit. |
Taste |
Sweet with balancing acidity – pear drops, nuts, cacao and orchard fruit. Water amplifies fruitiness and sweet notes – perhaps too much. |
Aftertaste |
Black cherry, orange zest oils and lingering dry cedarwood. |
