Porridge with clear oak presence — vanilla notes, pine needles and subtle juniper aroma

Fairly sweet with warming baking spices, mainly cinnamon — soft pepper, toffee, coriander with a whisper of crisp green apple, slightly dry
Finish
Drying and spicy — balanced, complex and very inviting despite just one year of age
Expert Review
7/10Four-times distilled malt wine of barley, rye and corn aged one year in oak — Dutch korenwijn style, the spirit that preceded gin. Porridge, vanilla and green apple with warming baking spices.
