Tasting Notes
There is a slightly smoky hint of reduction before hints of salted shortbread appear on the nose. The palate carries that smouldering smokiness over so that it colours the beautifully rounded, soft shortbread notes that surround notions of Golden Delicious apple and an overtone of lime zest. The mousse is creamy and smooth, the balance is beautiful.
