Nosing:
Lime and orange rind, sultanas and dates give a rich fruity flavour laced with tantalising spices of coconut and nutmeg.
Taste:
Ginger, nutmeg and toasted almonds bring a deep, warming taste interwoven with a syrupy lemon meringue and honeycomb middle.
Finish:
Long and lusciously sweet finish with lemon zest, white chocolate, vanilla and traces of ginger and nutmeg.
