THE STAGE IS SET
Cask No. 55.87
sold out
On the nose, pencil shavings, linoleum and sawmills underlaid sweet pastry, Black Forest gateau and some more perfumed aromas (cigarette packets, geranium, purple Starburst candies, apples, make-up). To taste, light perfume, leather and pepper could not intimidate the sweetness of Terry’s chocolate orange, Turkish Delight, toffee, sultana cake, and raspberry sauce on ice-cream.
Even better with water, the nose gave us Fry’s Chocolate Cream candy bars, pink wafers and marshmallows in a ladies' hat shop; the palate ran light leather tingles over sweet delicacies (chocolate cake, candy floss, heather honey) along with spice, fruit and flowers.
