Nose
Vanilla at first, followed by olive brine, lemon peel, crème brûlée and a touch of wood glue. Maybe a touch of bay leaf and other herbs. Naked and balanced. Stewed orchard fruit, buttery pastry and a handful of marshmallows – Fluff-topped apple tarts? Sharper apple skin and crunchy barley sugar notes develop, along with butter lemon pith and peel. Fruity caramel, rhubarb and custard sweets, Fox's Glacier fruits and malted milk biscuits. Butterscotch and sherbert lemons follow, with a touch of buttermint and spiced shortbread.
Palate
Touches of charred oak and a sliver of chalk, but also nectarine, ginger, dark spices, and macadamia nuts. There's even a bitter hint of espresso. A burst of Dolly-Mixture sweetness is balanced by sharp apple and rich butter toffee. Bitter apple pip and barrel char notes sits at the back. Travel sweets and apple Jolly ranchers build, along with grassy notes. Spiced sponge cake and raisin jam lead – hello sherry cask. The mint is now choc chips and the butterscotch is Daim bars. Dark leathery notes emerge from the depth, with juicy raisins, mixed spice and a cinnamon tingle.
Finish
Lingering spices and a touch of milk chocolate. Peel and char notes face to leave of alcohol heat. A punchy dram with a lot of youthful character – it's got heat, but it's fruity spirit untempered by the cask. Dark and spicy: buttery chocolate-dipped spiced shortbread and black liquorice.
