Review and Tasting

Sampled on 19/11/2014

Appearance:

Clear, golden amber.

Aroma:

Honey, new leather, vanilla, custard cream biscuit, toasted almond, apricot with bark and herbal complexity. More toasty with water.

Taste:

Elegantly oaked with mildly bitter tannins, mild spice and delicate earthy peat balanced by light honeyed sweetness. Water amplifies bitterness upsetting honey balance.

Aftertaste:

Lightly spiced with bitter wood tannins and lingering black pepper.
