Tasting

How it drinks

Sight
Pale gold, almost straw-coloured; light-medium body. Designed to maintain flavour profile when served ice-cold
Nose
Fresh and fruity with peaches, honey, and oranges, hints of vanilla and mint. Faintly waxy with green apples, unripe pears, and gooseberries on a light heathery base
Palate
Light and fresh with grassiness, nuttiness, bread-like malt, pears, and citrus. Pepper and oak spices provide warmth. Honeyed and sweet with warming peppery spice. Retains character even when chilled
Finish
Medium length with lingering gentle oak wood spices, slight nuttiness, and honey sweetness. Allspice, nutmeg, and smoky malt in the finish
