Nose
fresh with initial aromas of orange blossom and crisp green apple. Underneath is a further aroma of lemon sherbet. Then come hints of vanilla, malted cereals, fresh hay, icing sugar and jasmine flowers.
Palate
vibrancy and freshness continues. There is a wonderful initial lively floral burst, which is led by the orange blossom again but with hints of the jasmine also. Then comes a wave of icing sugar, poached pears and vanilla. The maltiness is present but more robust now and the green apple notes are more subdued than on nose.
Finish
hints of marshmallow, lemon zest oil, white chocolate, cinnamon and baking spices. The overall feel of the finish is hot and peppery, but the sweetness of the icing sugar note lingers well. Once this fades you are left with the baking spices from the palate and a good pinch of white pepper and alcohol heat on tongue.
