Nose: Very buttery, joined by notes of lemongrass, grist and cereals. A fruity hint of green banana and refreshing spearmint.

Palate: Apples, pears and white grapes at first. Elegantly grassy later on, with some chocolate fudge bringing in a touch of sugary sweetness. A pinch of pepper lingers and lasts onto the finish.

Finish: Cloudy lemonade, honey’d barley and granary bread with a thin layer of thyme honey.
