Overall
Score
7.2
Nose
Something funky and tropical. Pineapple and mango, sherbet, vanilla, black pepper and a metallic copper tinge with sawdust blowing in the corner.
Palate
You get that tropical fruit in there, but the predominant flavour here is vanilla. It blankets everything. There’s a fizzy feel to this, a touch of petillance if you will.
Finish
That vanilla has morphed into more of a chewy toffee or fudge character, studded with some pepper.
Comment
For those who love the sweets of their childhood.
