Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
deep gold
air Nose
golden syrup, gingerbread, cake mix and some rather leafy tobacco notes with a few green fruits scattered about the place too. Fruit scones, sultanas, gooseberry jam and some nice notes of malt extract and hessian. A rather fat, gloopy and fruity profile - which is most pleasing. With water: greener, fresher, brighter and a tad more pithy and citrusy. Cornflakes dusted with icing sugar and candied pecans
restaurant Palate
Very bready at first, towards malt extract, fresh breads, dough, pastries, lemon curd, digestive biscuits and some dried banana chips. A nice rich texture that’s bolstered by notes of sunflower oil and more of these bready, autolytic impressions. With water: as on the nose, water seems to elevate the naturally sweeter side. Candied fruits, icing sugar, lemon barley water and some delicate herbal tea notes
timer Finish
medium and rather malty, herbal, rich and biscuity again - custard creams this time
