Panel's tasting note: "Whilst pouring a sample we were all reminded of opening a bag of crispy fried and salted corn kernels, followed by sweet, fruity aromas of bananas, a jar of pear drops, candy sticks but at the same time crispy baked sweet potato fries. The taste neat started off very sweet; caramel glazed doughnuts and chocolate fudge ice cream but well balanced by a variety of Indian and Thai spices. With water it turned into an ‘Afghan Monkey’ (cocktail using Malibu, banana and melon liqueur, Blue Curacao, whipped cream and pineapple juice) and in the finish a dried fruit mix with sweet and spicy chili flakes."
Drinking tip: "Beware! Dangerously drinkable!"
