Tasting Notes

Arthur Motley Nose Damp earth, kiwi, lemon Jif, tangerine. Pretty. Palate Citric, then woody and a touch buttery. Finish Crisp grassiness, with a little earthiness attached. Chocolate milk. Comment A pretty face with muddy feet.

Dave Broom Nose Back to the bready template again: digestive biscuits, vanilla, melon, coconut matting with some sweetness behind. Pine needles. Palate Better than the nose and fills out with a splash of water shifting it into fruit smoothie territory. Soft and gentle. Finish Cocoa butter. Comment OK, but lacks impact and definition.
