Tasting Notes

Colour

light gold

air Nose

heaps of fresh bread, buttery croissants, and a dash of mashed potatoes (50% butter, 50% potatoes), with a hint of wet plaster and fresh grass. A few drops of brut cider and mead, then very ripe apples, yet it remains beautifully dry, still focused on the fresh bread with just a few touches of panettone and snapped twigs

restaurant Palate

indeed, it’s quite oily, led by candied citron, with hints of eucalyptus, followed by ripe bananas and dried apricots. There’s also a return of the bread and quince paste, accompanied by those notes of fresh (unsawn) wood again

timer Finish

long, very balanced, fairly rich, but still all about the raw ingredients. That is to say, the barley, with some touches of oatcakes. There’s a faint honeyed note in the aftertaste
