Notes

Nettle and blackcurrant leaf on the nose shifts to bubblegum and new tennis balls, then dried apricots, tobacco and oak. The palate finds chalky sweets and spearmint gum, then produces toffee bonbons and fly cemeteries, followed by a spicy warmth of ginger and white pepper on the finish. The reduced nose seems to deepen towards hessian bung cloths and dunnage warehouses, but with the beguiling sweetness of heather honey, rum and raisin fudge, coconut biscuits and treacle toffee. The palate now becomes a mouth-watering mixture of juicy peaches and pineapples, toffee, custard tarts and Armagnac with an autumnal herbal, minty finish.
