Tasting Notes

Colour

pale gold

air Nose

thankfully, there are no overpowering notes of raspberry, crushed strawberries, or blackcurrant jelly. Instead, it’s fresh barley, pralines, brioche, raisin rolls, mild ale, pink grapefruit, celery, beetroot, and a very light smoke. With water: we enter a realm of damp earth, fallen leaves, potting soil, fresh croissants, and blueberry muffins

restaurant Palate

but of course it’s very good. Lovely bitterness, hints of bell pepper, roots, sweet breads, raisins, honey cookies… It’s even quite charming. With water: now it’s perfect. A nice vegetal smoke—almost like a garden bonfire—and a few currants

timer Finish

medium length, round, and ultimately quite approachable
