Cask No. DISTILLERY 5 RARE RELEASE Sweet, fruity & mellow

LIME AND THYME

$244.99

A wonderful mélange of aromas greeted the panel with fresh spring grass, flowering lilies, honeysuckle, melon and mango as well as buttered toast, sultanas, banana chips and golden syrup. On the palate neat a sweet, juicy, tropical fruit juice with coconut water at first appeared, to be followed by a peppery ginger spice note before ending in a delicious lime and thyme cake.

After reduction we hung freshly washed linen on the line in a flowery meadow before we enjoyed banana bread, buttered oatcakes, cantaloupe melon and to drink, while some had a wheat beer, others chose a peppermint tea before we all finished with a dessert wine.
