Nose
A sweetshop – candy teeth, pink shrimps, hard candy letters and necklaces, white chocolate bobbly buttons, tom thumb drops and rose Turkish Delight. The traditional waxy distillery character is here in spades, with both musky beeswax and floral scented candles out in force, and there's a touch of candied lemon sitting at the back.
Palate
Soft with a big background of oak. The sweetness from the nose is mixed with spicy oak and some dry wooden boards – the sweetshop is still here, but skewed to sour and fizzy sweets, with Refreshers (both chewy and chalky) and Sherbet Dip Dabs making an appearance. Floral notes are heavy at first, but fade to a real, sour flower petals and damp oak.
Finish
Floral and sweet with some oaky spice and a gentle sourness that fades away to apples and pears, before a waxy resurgence leads it to a final death.
