Taste

Burnt sugar, stewed apple and baked buttery apple tart.

Aftertaste

Banana cake remerges with Demerara sugar and stewed apple. This sample was a new bottle but compared badly to an old bottle on our bar which is 18% alc./vol. and has flavours of rich, ripe, juicy, red apple skin and flesh, sweet but with a nice balancing dryness and a red apple finish. Our rating is down the middle - the new sample (which we think may be faulty) we'd score a 3/5 while the old sample would score 4 or higher. diffordsguide rating: 3.5/5
