SWEETLY MODERN
Cask No. 60.31
sold out
Savoury, spicy aromas of beef goulash, Night nurse, cranberry concentrate, maple-cured bacon, nutmeg, root beer, red grapes, Stollen, lamb gravy, caraway and rye bread made us all hungry. The palate, not as savoury as expected was thick with cedarwood, spiced apple tobacco and mulled cider. With water we now smelled celery, mushrooms, plum chutney, sesame, roast turkey & redcurrant jelly although a sweetness of wild strawberries. To taste it was now minty, dry and chewy with a spiced milky coffee and musty note. We all agreed it was better neat. From the first purpose built distillery in the twentieth century.
