Andrew's Tasting Note

Nose: malty and herbaceous with raw and cooked root vegetables: glazed carrots and boiled turnips; honey, boysenberry jam, dried apricots and baked apple.

Palate: soft, toasty and very malty, very malty; lush and creamy; floral and subtly waxy with more root vegetables; dried apricots, baked apple and poached pear; toasty, with vanilla and almond paste; building oak spices and sliced ginger; late tropical fruits. 

Finish: drying, warming and spicy; the finish is long with more glazed and sauteed root vegetables; fruity (baked apples and tropical fruits) and malty.

Comment: this is a lush, fruity and floral malt; don't let the root vegetables scare you off, they are lovely accents to an otherwise already complex malt.
