Tasting Notes
Nose neat: Very sweet with sherry, plums, cherries, honey, wood varnish and furniture polish. Blackcurrants with liquorice, Barossa Shiraz and sweet fruitcake.
Taste neat: Honeyed oats, cranachan with a savoury undertone, caramel and very sweet. Fruitcake comes through again.
Nose diluted: A leather handbag filled with dark fruits and demerara sugar. The merest hint of freshly struck matches.
Taste diluted: Very sweet with light caramel, fruit cake, syrup and heather honey. Blackcurrant liquorice sweets linger in the background.
