Appearance

Clear, bonze with red glints.

Aroma

Fruity and spicy with orange peel, chocolate, Indian spice, cinnamon, smoked crispy bacon and menthol. Some dandelion and burdock.

Taste

Huge, complex, fruity and raisiny with underlying spicy, citrusy bitterness over which are layered sweet flavours of liquorice, orange zest and juice, rhubarb, grapes and cocoa.

Aftertaste

Slight smokiness to the lingering, quinine, bitter-sweet finish with a slight hint of curry spice.

Overall

Rich, raisiny and honeyed with drying quinine and rooty bitterness and complex spices.
