Overall
Score
7.9
Nose
Clean and light. Gentle grated nutmeg, cumin, vellum, roasting coffee bean then into honeycomb (Crunchie bars). Rose petal.
Palate
A clean very honeyed palate with a crisp spice from the oak which then softens into melted chocolate.
Finish
A zippy lift which freshens everything. Vetiver. Sandalwood.
Comment
You could sit and suck on a bottle of this all day long. Worryingly drinkable.
