Smags noter af Graham Eunson:
Appearance : Tawny brown with a bright orange tinge
Nose : A mixing bowl of hazelnuts, spices, dried fruit, cherries and cake mix with a good measure of demerara sugar, a sprinkling of cocoa powder and a splash of brandy.
With water: The aroma becomes instantly more fruity with orange rind, lemon zest and glacæ© cherries, and then more creamy, revealing cræ¨me bræ»læ©e. Later, a hint of lint/ antiseptic emerges with a whiff of smoke.
Taste : Bursting with spices and intensely peppery, the mouthfeel is like fireworks on the tongue. The flavours are of intense cinnamon sticks, nutmeg, barley sugar and ground almonds. Big, chewy fruits are found with a hint of beeswax in the background.
Finish : Long, chewy and spicy to the end with cinnamon sticks, nutmeg and fruit pulp.
