Description
The aroma had it all. Malty, jammy, juicy, fruity ... it felt like the sweet breeze of a warm, sunny late afternoon in a field of golden barley that shimmered in the light. We then found a deep, sweet, warming glow on the palate, like a liberal slice of orange blossom and cardamom cake with mascarpone coconut frosting. After we added a drop of water the scent moved towards toasted chopped walnuts in a chocolate chip cookie alongside raisin scones with strawberry jam and cream. The taste was pure indulgence, with peach and rose petal jam on cardamom pistachio shortbread and a hibiscus honey panna cotta.
