Overall
Score
9.0
Nose
Intense, grassy. Elegant. Peaches poached in honey. Then fudge and\rliquorice toffee. An earthy note too. Sun warmed pine needles.
Palate
Round at first then an explosion of spices gives a very dry feel, balanced\rwith creamy marshmallow and caramelised almonds.
Finish
Sweet, lingering, with a gentle fizzy feel on the tongue.
Comment
A real cracker. Perfect balance. Rich, enticing. Alcohol is beautifully mastered.
