Description

Nose
A pleasant start on creamy vanilla, fresh peaches and hints of honey. Bright apple juice and whiffs of bramble in the distance. Slightly plankish hint of virgin oak, with pencil shavings. Hints of soaked grains and grist, with butterscotch and whiffs of pizza dough. Rich malted barley depth with gentle oak.
Palate
A very oily, creamy texture with lots of vanilla notes. Custard, cooked fruits, pastry notes and buttery Sablés from Normandy. Cinnamon, nutmeg and slightly thinner herbal notes. Syrupy notes of honey, buttercream, baking spice and dried apricots.
Finish
Good length. Still some ginger and pepper, with biscuits and light hints of chocolate. Warming finish reminiscent of home baking and indulgent buttery oat biscuits.
