The nose is like an orange, lemons and vanilla cake with hazelnuts sprinkled on top. There’s an old uk brand of sweets called Refeshers, and I get a strong reminder of those.
The arrival is big and bold, toffee, spice and sweet fruit. It quickly develops into something tart and smoky - like having a cigarette over a glass of freshly squeezed grapefruit.
The mouthfeel is dry and waxy, and the finish is clean and medium length.
An under-appreciated gem.
