Nose
Alcohol up front with a hint of glue which almost immediately turns into a mixture of citrus, citrus blossom, cherry blossom and orange gummy bears. Give it a few minutes and notes of honey, slightly burnt vanilla pudding, brown sugar and sweet citrus cake appear.
Palate
A somewhat simple, dry, yet mouth-coating profile: A green, almost grassy component (including slightly bitter woodruff) meets citrus flowers, barley, green apples and pears. With a teaspoonful of water, the initial harshness is greatly reduced and a few sweeter barley malt, citrus cake and almost honey-like flavours with a hint of vanilla appear.
Finish
Medium-long finish is not without a noticeable alcohol impact upon swallowing, on the green side again with green apples and pears, woodruff a hint of vanilla and slight spices.
