The sherried sweetness and bright orange notes give this a clear, rounded character. There’s also a slight rubbery, sulphury edge on the nose, which keeps it from feeling entirely smooth or restrained.
Rich sherry and caramel, with a bold, full-bodied palate.
smallbatchkit30 AugThe rich sherry, caramel and toffee have a welcome counterpoint in the sea salt and tart citrus. There’s plenty of character here, though the slight rubbery or sulphury edge on the nose may not suit everyone.
