Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Big, tangy and earthy, combining zesty orange peel and thick marmalade with dark chocolate-coated raisins, juicy black cherries, manuka honey and maple syrup.
Palate
A rich initial wave of manuka honey, oats and toffee mixes with the familiar orange zest and raisins, plus a touch of woodspice. Water brings out softer notes of stewed apples and pears.
Finish
Gentle and juicy, ending on cloves, cinnamon and apples.
