SPIRIT NOTES
Our first impression was that of a mineral maritime note along with the vanilla sweetness of minty lime custard. In time, the fruity aromas of dark cherries, strawberries, mango and honeydew melon developed. One Panel member was reminded of advertisements for a branded tonic water's purported refreshing qualities, translating as "a little mouth puckering but truly a citrus freshness". Water added more of that fresh, maritime citrus scent with grapefruit and lemon next to some arable notes, as we walked in fields of barley on a sunny Scottish August day. On the palate we were served, simply blanched, langoustines with citrus-dressed samphire.
