Producer Description
"The original Timorous Beastie, immortalised in Robert Burns’ famous Scots poem “To a Mouse” was a timid, little field mouse. Echoing our national bard’s wit, ours is most certainly not for the fainthearted! Inside there’s a medley of vanilla, malted barley, meringue, honey and citrus flavours just bursting to be unleashed…"
Producer's Tasting Note
Nose: Overridingly sweet initially, then warming to floral, light barley and spicy honeyed tones
Palate: Opens in a spicy style with fructiferous notes of raisin and a sugary, fudgey character
Finish: Subtle yet sweet with a real oaky flavour, hints of milky cereals and late meringue
