Tasting Notes

Limited to 2 per member

A startling and complex aroma that was initially medicinal but then opened up onto rosewater, sawn oak, new leather, wintergreen, apricot flapjacks, petrichor, freshly baled hay and heather flowers. Water brought out sandalwood, turmeric, nutmeg, coconut cream, rice pudding and lanolin. Altogether more fragrant and aromatic. The palate was wonderfully rich and syrupy sweet. Lots of ripe yellow fruits, lychee, eucalyptus resin, tiger balm, mint leaf and caramelised pineapple. Reduction brought out deeper notes of butter bean hummus, crushed aspirin, kumquat, caramelised cereals, sheep wool oils and sandalwood.
