Sweet Reminiscence

Speyside, Spey

Honey-sweetened homemade vanilla pudding, warm croissants and brioche as well pineapple, apple, ginger and mint sorbet on the nose neat. Lovely and sweet on the palate with juicy pineapple, lemon drizzle cake, toffee and gooseberry fool while in the finish, a sweet chilli ginger stir-fry. Plenty of old-fashioned sweets on the nose after we added water; milk bottles, Moffat toffee, Spangles and candy cigarettes made of chalky sugar next to heavily buttered popcorn. Luscious, fruity and mouthcoating like a handful of fruit-flavoured Pez pieces, knickerbocker glory and banana split with a strawberry topping and chocolate syrup – sweet childhood memories.
