Tasting Notes

Nose

Not much going on at first – it’s weak tropical fruits, green apples, some vague grassiness, grapefruits and melon. Lots of subtleties, with ginger and toffee to boot.

Palate

Maybe lacks a little flavour; dried apricots, but very peppery. A few herbal notes. Water kills anything that’s going on.

Finish

Oily, mildly fruity, but short on flavours - even if the spirit notes last a little longer.

Comment

A bit samey.
