Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
Pale gold
air Nose
Mashed potatoes eaten next to a hay loft. Lots of fresh cereals, butter, parsley, a little citrus, some vegetable oil, quite typical of these sorts of bottlings if you ask me. Perhaps a nice, gentle peat note emerging after a while along with some peppery aspects and a little green and white fruitiness. Becomes pleasantly fresher and more herbal with a little time in the glass
restaurant Palate
A delivery all on boiled sweets, barley sugar, mead, fruit pastilles - very sugary this one but in a pleasing way. Icing sugar, sponge cake (I should know!), some mint choc chip ice cream and, eventually, some soft floral notes of wildflowers. More cereals, citrus and a leafy, grassy note develops with time, perhaps some notes of gorse and various herbal liqueurs
timer Finish
Medium length with little notes of saltpetre, camphor and tea
