Andrew's Tasting Note

Nose: fresh, fruity and tropical with soft leather and candied fruits; jujubes and winegums with Jolly Ranchers and fresh bag of assorted Jelly Bellies.

Palate: darker fruits than implied by the nose but the tropical ones catch up with time; a creamy base and more fruit flavoured candies develop before the spices take over; licorice, leather and bacon wrapped figs.

Finish: long, coating and fruity, like letting a jujube disolve in your cheek.

Comment: price is a little high, still it is a shame we only got three of these, and we opened one for a tasting...
