Tasting Note by The Chaps at Master of Malt
Nose
Brown sugar, damson, tomatoes on the vine and hot cross buns with a very generous helping of dried fruit in the dough. A little fragrant barley and varnished oak in support.
Palate
Christmas cake, honey-nut cereal (with milk!) and ginger snaps. Some grilled banana and stroopwafel notes later on, followed by yet more raisins and currants.
Finish
Long and rich with layers of honey and ginger. Apples appear much later on the finish.
