Nose: carries such an aromatic impact of honey, mixed spices, crushed sugar and barley

Palate: anticipate a big, yet minty clean, rich, barley-based mouthfeel, replete with citrus flavours, a hint of mocha, a sliver of oak and loads of Malt

Finish: clean and “Breakfast-y” in style, with orange juice, cereal and vanilla ice cream
