Tasting notes of Merryn:

All tasting notes
The scent of citrus and ripening peaches is softened by the aroma of vanilla.
Taste:
First, vanilla is detected on the tongue before it ripples along the palate bringing a burst of flowery fruitiness.
Finish:
About a minute after tasting, you are left with a clean and salving aftertaste with hints of orange and peach.

RATING: 3.0/5.0 ≙ 83 pts




Fruity and delicate. Citrus, apple, banana aromas. There's a floral component that I can't properly identify
Taste:




Fresh and approachable, the fruit is a lot less well defined than the nose. Vanilla and malty sweetness.
Finish:




Long and fruity, some white pepper, develops into vanilla oakiness.
Comment:
I'd never tried this malt before and I spotted it in a half bottle format at the local store so I thought I'd give it a try. Definitely an approachable malt, I think the nose is where it shines, but I can't really fault the rest of it. I normally prefer a slightly more intense flavour so I'd be interested to see how it would be at higher ABV, but other than that it was certainly worth trying.
