Description
On the nose neat it was a real mixed bag of aromas ranging from smoked mussels and Thai sweet chilli scallops, to custard creams served with mint tea to a freshly laid tar road and finally a hint of medicinal cough remedy. Quite an experience which was aptly followed by the taste; an explosion of peat smoke and chilli heat combined with tart cherries, slightly unripe gooseberries and a freshly brewed Lapsang Souchong tea. After dilution sweeter notes appeared like that of a smoked cardamom vanilla latte while on the palate a spicy smoky crab cake Panini and to finish plenty of salty liquorice.
