Description

The colour of sun-bleached mahogany, with vanilla ice cream wafers on the nose initially, soon joined by Virginia tobacco and fruit cake (light simnal cake) – the former lent by from American oak, the latter by European oak. A trace of flower honey hovers in the background. The texture is silky smooth; the first taste sweet, with a trace of salt, leaving the palate clean. A little water introduces oaky notes initially, then baked apples and strawberry jam appear. The taste now becomes sweeter, with white pepper in the warming, spicy finish. (Charles Maclean)
