Taste note

  • Colour:

    Pale straw

  • Nose:

    Subdued, citric fruitiness; a whiff of bath oil and dentist's mouthwash. A fresh and appetising nose, with little or no trace of smoke. A little water raises almond oil and old fashioned oilskins; still a fresh fruitiness, a trace of olive oil, and after a while potpourri or scented hand-soap.

  • Palate:

    Smooth, pleasant mouth-feel: firm with a light to medium body. Drinks well at natural strength; sweet start; pleasant, light fragrant smokiness and a lengthy finish. Smooth, pleasant mouth-feel; with water light acidity, some salt and still the sweeter notes. A complex balance of primary tastes.

  • Finish:

    Sweet smokiness in the lingering, slightly sour finish.
