Overall
Score
8.2
Nose
Smells almost thick. Buttermilk pancakes, with lots of added butter, strawberries and maple syrup on top along with a bit of struck match and burnt cake notes.
Palate
Wonderful mouthfeel. Thick and oily. Just a bit of background smoky / sulphur, along with more up-front spice, brown sugar, raisins and cake. Reminds of Welsh cakes but with red fruits.\n
Finish
Tacky, sweetness that sticks to back of palate, along with a mid-palate dash of struck matches and cream.\n
Comment
Sweetness balanced out by that hint of struck matches and something savoury.
