Description
The complex nose starts with dry, dusty tobacco and hay – finds toffee, crème caramel and maple syrup sweetness; then subtle citrus arrives – sherbet lemons and dark chocolate orange creams. A similar story on the palate – rich honey, figs and dates shift into hot cross buns, followed by lively lemon puffs and fizzy orange. The reduced nose mixes lemon sponge, iced caramels and rainbow drops with hints of pine and balsa wood. The palate has juicy, mouth-watering tropical fruits, perfumed summer creams and smooth toffee – a whisper of tobacco and wood (briar pipe) to finish. An unanticipated reward for just being human.
