Rich golden yellow in colour with a punchy nose and an immediate impact. There is a distinct sweetness with lots of vanilla some honey and malty cereals. These are countered by further aromas of dried grass and wood spices (think - freshly sawn oak and cinnamon).Very spicy and gripping on the palate with a combination of bittersweet cereals cinnamon nutmeg and oak shavings notes before softening in the mouth and becoming a little creamier. The mouth-feel is almost oily with notes of vanilla honey and milk chocolate. Underneath are dried grass almost hay-like notes from the nose and a distinct citric tang - lemon zest and bitter orange.The finish is packed with wood spices and feels quite dry and mouth watering. This oaky woody spiciness leaves a lasting impression and makes you want to take another sip.
