Tasting note
Nose:
Bright energy shoots from the glass: woody spices and a bag of dried fruit and nuts. Glacé pineapple and dried mango, canned peaches. Dusty coconut, peanut butter and sandalwood ground the brighter notes with some earthiness.
Palate:
Excellent thick, textural entry. Coconut, dried apricot, and loads of nougat. Roasting almonds, a fun splash of thyme, cloves and a touch of tobacco. Green RSL jelly and toffee apple.
Finish:
Raspberry jam, white chocolate and a dusting of cocoa. Macadamia nuts, nougat again, peaches and coconut cream. Quite a lovely, deep fudgey malt character.
