Nose

Poached pear, apple sauce and hay. Candy-shop aromas, with butter toffee, white chocolate and boiled sweets. There’s a very faint rubbery note, like a bag of balloons. Behind it all, cupcakes with butter icing.

Palate

Great mouthfeel. A textbook example of orchard fruitiness, with a little hickory. Then a cup of Horlicks malt drink, or perhaps warm soy milk, with a toffee apple and slice of pear tarte.

Finish

The fruit, toffee and milky notes linger.

Comment

It has all the aromas of a good birthday party! Complex and delicious.
