Tasting Notes

Colour

gold

air Nose

pure acacia honey, heather ale, calvados, mulled cider and these lovely wee nutty notes such as toasted hazelnut, sunflower seeds and some aged Gueuze beer. Unusual but totally excellent!

restaurant Palate

hugely peppery, oily, camphory and riddled with winter spices such as cinnamon, cloves and nutmeg. Lots of earthy, leafy notes, meat stock, waxes, dried herbs, cooking oils and putty. Gets increasingly green, herbal and liqueurish. Mead, thyme, paprika and chocolate orange. I’m wondering how many of these ‘seasonal’ tasting notes are coming via the power of suggestion...?

timer Finish

long, lemony, leafy, waxy, mineral, oily and full of thick, dark fruity notes like sultanas and dates
