SPIRIT NOTES
The nose invited an amalgamation of perfumed aromas to join sweet notes of icing sugar, banana bread and aniseed balls against a backdrop of herbs and fresh mint. Floral themes continued on the palate but now with marshmallows and vanilla pods while a big hit of rye brought its unique dry spiciness. With water came a complex arrangement of green apples, peaches and olive oil bound with hessian sacks and lemon drizzle cake. Again on the palate we enjoyed mint and eucalyptus rye infused peppery dry spice but now with dried fruits, cinnamon and a lasting feel of coconut infused breakfast cereal.
