Tasting Notes

Colour

straw

air Nose

this one prickles with minerals, wet pebbles, flints, limestone, clay, straw, hessian and white pepper. There’s something farmy amongst it all as well, plenty of lemon and mixed citrus peels, some mint tea, a twist of old rope and a dollop of furniture oil as well. There’s also a sense of freshness in the form of all these rather crisp and toasty nut, seed and cereal aspects. Similar to the first 15 but missing the more punchy buttery and oily aspects. There’s still a lovely thread of wax running through this one though. With water: earthier, slightly more vegetal with white asparagus, sootier and with a slightly fatter and oilier cereal profile

restaurant Palate

once again this is lively, petroly, mineral, superbly peppery, oily, waxy, camphor, mint, juniper and things like hawthorne, bracken and clover. Lime jelly, lemon, herbal teas, cough medicine. Typically great. With water: perfect! A beautiful mix of white fruits, waxes, herbs, cereals and soft, peppery warmth. Just lovely

timer Finish

long, waxy, lemony, herbal, oily, and gently fruity
