Tasting Notes

Dave Broom Nose A little closed. Light with some fruity sweetness — rosehip syrup? but also a dusty attic mustiness. Palate Better than the nose, quite liquorice. Smooth with decent balance. Finish Cranberry jelly. Comment Insubstantial.

Arthur Motley Nose A sweet, perfumed cakiness, like a battenburg or a sweet sponge. Treacle. Sweet egginess, like a custard tart or scambled egg even. Stewed plums or stewed rhubarb. Palate Very sweet and then grassy. Finish A little burnt caramel. Comment Pleasant, sweet and light in character despite its deep colour.
