First sniff hits a bit of camphor and lime zest, bright and zingy. On the palate there’s a soft all‑spice warmth, a hint of green tea freshness, then a cake‑y maltiness that feels medium bodied. A touch of white chocolate fingers sweetness balances the hoppy‑beer edge, and yeah, it’s yeppy – makes me think of a sunny afternoon. Crystallised lemons linger, leaving a clean finish. 🥃

First impression is like an orange squash that’s caught more light – a bit hoppy beery at the edges but with a refreshing green tea and lime freshness underneath. 😊 Very nice medium weight on the palate, getting that yeppy cake-y maltiness and juicy fruits, almost like white chocolate fingers dipped in something tropical. There’s a soft all-spice warmth, maybe some cardamom, and a touch of camphor that keeps it interesting. Finish reminds me of barley water with crystallised lemons. Really pleasant sipping.

Right, had a wee dram earlier 🥃 Nose is lovely, hints of toffee n maybe some orchard fruit? 🍎 Palate... warm, bit spicy but not harsh. Feels like sitting by the fire on a cold day 🔥 Finish is smooth, lingers just right. Realy takes the edge off the day. Proper good stuff for unwindng. 😌
