Tasting Notes
Awards
Nose
A highly appealing combination of cut grass and warm sourdough slathered in honey. Background notes of pale ales, breads, white flowers with pollen and a little youthful calvados. Water unveils a lot more soft and plush cereal aspects along with more breads, toast, butter, yellow plums and some lemon barley water.
Palate
Juicy and sweetly fruity up front on arrival. Yellow plums, honey, flower nectars, grassy olive oil and tiny hints of white pepper and clove. An impressively thick and engaging mouthfeel. Dilution softens out the sweetness and balances it with more of these rich bready and biscuity notes. There’s also more floral and cereal qualities once again.
Finish
Medium in length and a little sharper and more peppery than usual. Clean, peppery and showing a nicely subtle herbal bitterness.
