Nose
A gentle but never ending wave of dried fruits, candied orange and dark chocolate and coffee takes a hold of your senses and refuses to let go. Madagascan vanilla, cinnamon buns and marzipan all make you tingle whilst tobacco leaf and manuka honey gives this extra dimensions.
Palate
This is so good. Dates, plum pudding, sticky toffee pudding, rich apple pie with lashings of cinnamon, demerara sugar and just a little burnt around the edges. Freshly made coffee from the cafetiere and sweetened with honey along with a slice of black forest gateau on the side.
Finish
Not explicitly stated in the provided snippet, but implied by the overall review.
