Tasting Notes

Colour

amber

air Nose

palo cortado works, I believe it's not 'sherry' they would make hastily just to season bespoke sherry casks for the whisky business. Apricot jam, touch of seawater, gorse, cigarettes, roasted and honeyed pecans, smoked ham, pinesap bonbons… It's just awesome. With water: old apples, medlars, jujubes, mead, sweet white wine (petit manseng), rose petals…

restaurant Palate

spicy and floral, a little unlikely in that respect but in fact, I love this. Big bacon seasoned/cured with flower jellies, apricot jam and honey. With water: more floral yet, towards pure meadows honey. It's become stunning – as long as you love honey as much as I do

timer Finish

medium, sweet, ultra-honeyed
