"Official SMWS Tasting Notes
Colour: Transparent peachy gold
Flavour profile: Sweet, fruity & mellow
The nose starts with a fleeting lemon and lime freshness,
before shifting to subtle floral notes, eventually settling to tempting honey
and crème anglaise sweetness. The palate synthesises all those elements
impressively and the sweetness has a lovely sharpness to balance it – dry pear,
flower stems, candied orange and lemon slices and tinned mandarins – with a
teasingly tannic, tongue-tingling finish (leather, wood and sugar-coated
fennel-seed Mukhwas). The reduced nose has sylvan floral echoes of briary, dog-rose
bowers, Florentines, sherbet lemons and chocolate-coated nuts. The palate now
combines lemon and ginger tea with toffee and chocolate – as balanced as a Bach
masterpiece.
