a creamy vanilla and honey note add to the richness of the palate

apricots and a subtle lead into some toasted malt and a hint of butterscotch with a vibrant and fruity taste leading to some soft sweet smoke

rhubarb and custard - but with more custard than rhubarb

the richness of the coast is always present but never overplays its card leaving you time to delve into this great vintage

Finish: Smokey heat lingers
