Nose
A rich and warm caramel oat milk latte, with a thin-crust treacle tart, with chunks of date and a flick of orange rind.
Palate
A lot of dark dried fruits in a fruit cake, cherries, hints of cinnamon and nutmeg, with brandy cream making an appearance. It’s kind of giving me festive vibes here.
Finish
Lingering candied peel, with a little more spice and creaminess leading out.
Comments
This is a festive slice of heaven and has me craving a Hot Toddy.

Nose
Buttery toffees and crème caramel. Steamed syrup sponge pudding, lemon zest, and a little sweet milky coffee. Freshly planed oak. Stewed plums and plump raisins.
Palate
Sherry-soaked raisins, and a hint of black tea. Sprinklings of citrus with a good grip of woody spice and dryness. Buttery texture.
Finish
Notes of bitter orange marmalade and woody astringency, with the faintest touch of juniper.
Comments
Really rather tasty. The rich woody, fruity and caramel notes would lend it very nicely to a Martinez.
