THE STAGE IS SET
Cask No. 55.87
sold out
We found a superbly fresh nose, riddled with fresh fabrics, snapped twigs, linens, burlap cloth, waxy honeycomb, sandalwood and mossy potting sheds. Further wee notes of liquorice, dried tarragon, green mango and tar were also all recorded. With water we found lemon cake, goat cheese curds, gooseberry crispness, varnished fences, sunflower seeds and warm printer toner.
In the mouth this one was full-bodied and nicely punchy. Lots of hot white pepper, pineapple cubes, orange jelly, lychee syrup, daisies and chocolate biscuits. Reduction brought baking soda, rye spice, crushed aspirin, white tea, chalky candy and some green tannins.
