Nose A creamy, aromatic melange of vanilla custard, hints of aniseed, lemon curd and butter toffee. Wood shavings and dried banana chips develop with just a hint of cassis.
Palate More of those banana chips showing through on the palate, this time there's a creamy hit of barley malt too, pepped up with a little allspice. Notes of ground walnut and caramel.
Finish Light spice and black pepper on the tail. Lingering notes of cereal sweetness.
Overall A spicy, beautifully balanced blend. Lots going on here.
