TASTING NOTES
COLOR: golden wheat
NOSE: Sweet stewed apple, fruity gummi chews, pear drops, rhubarb and custard sweets, porridge (with dark demerara sugar) and hints of furniture polish.
TASTE: Softer than expected to start, with cream and gentle ground cinnamon spiciness. Fruit rolls in behind that, with raisins and apple joined by cinnamon bark and soft flapjacks. There’s an elegant mustiness hiding behind the fruit, like an old cupboard, with hints of flamed orange zest appearing right at the end.
FINISH: Gentle cinnamon and nutmeg spiced porridge, with sweet grass and hay notes growing as it fades.
