Description
We first discovered peach melba in an apple and pear orchard surrounded by lavender, before gorse flowers, peppercorns and coconut rained on to a hay meadow. A gentle mace joined tinned peaches and condensed milk on the palate, along with warm bread and treacle. The introduction of water brought wild strawberries and oranges on soda bread, salted butter and tweed-covered picnic hampers full of cashew nuts, blackcurrants, vanilla pods and sesame seeds. Cakey and bready, the finish was short, with a gentle mace spice, fresh bagels, pancakes and apricot pop tarts.
