The nose had a subtle dryness (like a shoe-shine stand someone said) but it was mainly sweet and fruity butter shortbread, creamy vanilla, Rice Krispie squares, marshmallow, marzipan and chocolate orange creams. A similar pattern on the taste juicy orange marmalade, sherbet and brown sugar, with the dryness coming out in the finish black tea, leather, spiced nuts and oak.

With water the nose became more delicate caramel, toffee, coconut, orchard fruits and lemon puff biscuits; hints of canvas and varnished wood. The palate became more perfumed damson crumble, pineapple sprinkled with salt and chili and an interesting ginger and orange combination.
