Notes

About An unexpected feast: Speaking of salinity, this is another coastal masterpiece. Tropical fruits and smoked meats come out to play in the “wee toon” with plenty of seafood fare to keep you mystifie. Our last 93 just sold out so don’t let this one pass you by….

Tasting Panel Note: A cask floated in on the tide; a laundry worker left their washing to investigate, finding honeyed ham, lemony oysters and blue cheese inside – an unexpected feast! Actually, the palate gave us foamy strawberry chews, pear drops, honey, ginger, rhubarb and lime; with charred oak and extra strong mints afterwards. The reduced nose revealed old ship’s timbers, tobacco, Kendal mint cake and a beach scene (with sun lotion, beach huts and tropical fruit ice cream). The palate now combined zingy pineapple, mango and lime fruit cocktail with engineer’s rags and tinned pears eaten from an ashtray, before a tongue-twisting finish of chilli, ginger and salted oak.
