Tasting Notes
Nose |
The WSD: Sharp sweet citrus. Oranges, Granny Smith's apples, apricots and fresh pears with creamy Highland toffee and butterscotch. Followed by a light scent like dew dripped grass first thing on a morning. A touch of water deepens all these flavours. (V) |

The WSD: An initial spicy hit but the citrus and creaminess are still there as well, almost like lime & lemon pie with shortcrust pastry. A slight woody notes sits in the background. Water softens the spices and adds a further creaminess and kiwi fruits. (V) |
