Nose
Malty and nutty with a grassy note. Basil. Lemon balm. Redcurrant jelly. An unpleasant sulphury hint at times. Palate
Sweet with a sharper core. Citrussy. Grapefuit peel. Finish
Fruity and mellow. Rhubarb jam. Comment
Good balance. A fruity profile. To be enjoyed with a lemon-meringue pie or a syllabub.

Becomes sweet. Plump dates. Comment
A rich sweet and fairly deep dram.
