Tasting Notes

Nose
G&M: Lemon and limes leap out at you while honey and pine resin hints are a lettle more demure, underlying the peaty and malty notes in the background. Adding a drop of water bring out the gorgeous sweet chocolate and fudge aromas, follower by floral elements and subtle phenols.

The WSD: Pine wood smoke, hints of lime zest in the background with hazelnuts and orange. (V)

Taste
G&M: Savour the smokiness with cereal and malty flavours. It dries up with spicy and peppery notes, followed by a surprising delicate floral edge. With water toast pops up... there's a wisp of smoky flavours then fruity notes develop along with an earthy vanilla edge.

The WSD: Zingy lemon and lime zest wows you firstly followed by milk chocolate and fresh pine on a dying out wood fire with a touch of mint at the end. (V)

 Finish
 The WSD: Smoky finish with the fresh pine still lingering to give a warming, medium length finish. (V)
