Producer’s tasting notes.
Appearance: Hazy amber with suspended solids including barrel char.
Nose: The aroma is immediately coastal with sea spray and surf. A second pass reveals smoked bacon wrapped in campfire cooked damper drizzled in maple syrup. With time the aroma of vanilla eclairs and brandy cream emerge. A charcuterie board of cured meats sit in the background.
Palate: Salted toffee with dark chocolate shavings and ginger snap biscuits. Spiced maple syrup and more charred damper. A faint touch of rose.
Finish: Smouldering smoke and cinders from a wood fire.
