Taste note
-
Colour:
Deep copper
-
Nose:
Banana fritters, sea spray, old oak furniture, cider apples, a whiff of Frazzles, all held together with crumbly fudge notes.
-
Palate:
Floral heather - perhaps a hint of rose too. Develops heavier notes of salted caramel, chilli chocolate, smoky barley and nectarines.
-
Finish:
Smoke becomes sweet on the finish, with an undercurrent of cedar.
