Nose: Orange peel, sandalwood, nutmeg, damson jam, malted grains, clay dust, hints of cinnamon.

Tasting:  Sweet sour. Marshmallows, vanilla, sandalwood, nutmeg, honey, clay dust, kiwifruit, hints of brown paper. 
Finish: Medium. Sandalwood, nutmeg, orange peel, brown paper. 

Comments: 

Spicy and woody, but with a fruity edge. It tastes dusty despite its young age, and can sometimes be almost gritty. I’ve never understood who a liquid can feel that way, but it must be a strong flavour association that’s tricking my poor brain. It then builds to a spicy, feinty finish.

Verdict:

I like this a lot.
