Description
The rich and robust profile suggested to us waxed canvas, starched linens, citrus air fresheners and things such as lanolin and dried pollens. We also found a touch of pine resins and vanilla custard in the background. Reduction brought plum stones, rice wine and lemon barley water with a hints of damp bark and ginger. The neat palate was full of wood spices, firm and creamy vanilla pudding, green fruits and exotic fruit teas. A wee refreshing tang of spearmint in the background added balance. With water we got more subtle spiciness along with lemon curd, savoury pastries, shilling ales, cough sweets and heather honey.
