Tasting Notes From The Producer
-
Nose
Solid, old, waxed oak floors, velvet armchairs and a bowl of exotic fruit. Old books on newly-polished wooden shelves lead to an elegant spread of sa ffron buns and oatcakes dusted with cinnamon and sprinkled with chopped mint.
-
Palate
Dried mango slices and pineapple rings are tinged with a hint of menthol. A drop of water enrichens the texture, giving beeswax richness and flavour. Sweet Madeira, toasted brioche and sunflower seeds follow.
-
Finish
A long and complex finish of coconut and mint, develops with soft woody tones and a little pine resin astringency.
