Nose
A rather leafy and chalky start, with beeswax, dried yellow flowers, mint leaves, peaches, sunflower oil, dried herbs, honey, and whiffs of tobacco and old-school dusty books. It recalls early 1970s Caperdonichs with fruity bombs of papayas, guavas, mangos, and bananas steeped in honey and natural vanilla.
Palate
Waxy and full of texture, with mineral and austere notes. Features grapefruit, pear, peach, ale, aniseed, honey, subtle green herbs, and a bit grassy at times. Bananas drizzled with honey, pollen, gentle mentholated glimmers, beeswax, praline, and white clover.
Finish
Long, quite earthy, with hints of floral honey, light chalky notes, and mild pepper. Gentle, fairly rounded, and growing ever fruitier than actual fruits, with cheeky jellybeans and babies in the aftertaste. Waxy, honeyed, gently peppery, and with elegant dried fruits and flowers.
