Nose
Spicy pork on the BBQ with notes of smoked paprika, cracked black pepper and lime juice. Hot chocolate with chilli powder and caramelised hazelnuts, accented by sea-spray freshness. Fleeting whiff of perfumed sweets, turkish delight, sugared lemons, brine, salt cakes, ozone, cotton candy, vegetable oil, mango, coconut, yellow guava, and wintergreen. [2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 9]
Palate
Slightly oily with spices, green pepper and rustic salt-and-pepper crisps. A sweetness develops, with dusty chocolate and freeze-dried raspberries wrapped in wood smoke. Oak char and smooth praline leads into savoury spicy notes, with peppercorns and a pinch of rock salt, alongside summer berry sweetness. A punch of smoke, limoncello, and sweet oakiness. [2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 9]
Finish
The spice lingers, accompanied by a dry, salty tang. Salty smoke and chilli pepper warmth lingers. Hot, spicy, pink peppercorns, lemons, and smoldering fire. [2, 3, 5, 6, 7, 9]
