Cask No. 2.135

Afternoon on the lawn

Speyside, Spey

Freshly baked apple crumble dusted with cinnamon and served with custard arrived with manuka honey, pink wafer biscuits and strawberries topped with macadamia nuts and mint leaves. On the palate, carrot cake made with crystalised ginger and hazelnuts joined baklava, vanilla ice cream and toasted cereals, while the lively character of apple sherbet combined with crushed nettle leaves. Water enhanced the toasty notes with freshly baked bread, oat biscuits and warm doughnuts combining with allspice, nut oils and kirsch. Flavours warmed the mouth with cinnamon and ginger, while a squeeze of lemon in Earl Grey tea developed into gin botanicals, green leaves and oak tannins on the finish.
