Gold in the glass, and honestly, it just smells like walking into a sunny garden. There's this wonderful floralness right away – I’m thinking pansies, maybe dandelions, a bit of elderflower. Then you get the softer notes, like meadows honey and those lighter acacia honeys, right along with some beeswax. The taste is really well put together. You get that ripe fruit first – overripe apples, very ripe gooseberries, even a hint of quinces. Then it moves into this lovely, warm butterscotch and biscuit note, like afternoon tea with a tiny bit of speculoos crumble. There's a gentle earthy liquorice wood there too, just a whisper. It’s firm but keeps all that floral fruitiness. The finish is rather long, and I get this nice, subtle citrus and a faint memory of Earl Grey tea right at the end. Honestly, just a beautifully balanced glass to unwind with. 😊

这杯酒的第一印象就是扑鼻的花香🌸，非常棒，混着像蜂蜜酒和成熟水果的甜香。 喝起来真的平衡极了，你能尝到熟透了的鹅莓、榅桲，还有一丝柑橘和淡淡的接骨木花蜜味，很轻盈。后调有点像姜饼饼干碎屑和蜂蜡，混合着伯爵茶那种柔和的香料感。 回味很长，花香始终坚守，但酒体又很结实。46%的酒精度完全被包裹住了，是一杯复杂又易饮的愉悦之酒。🍯

Just had a dram of this one, and wow, the nose is such a mix. 🌸 All these florals, like walking through a meadow – pansies and dandelions – but then it’s got this firm, waxy backbone, like beeswax polish. Took a sip and it’s like summer in a glass. 🍯 Super ripe gooseberries and overripe apples, that mead-like sweetness. Then comes the butterscotch and acacia honey, almost nectarous. There’s a soft citrus zing and something like Earl Grey tea leaves, with a hint of liquorice wood right at the end. It’s got this lovely, biscuity, American oak warmth, but just a tiny tad. Excellently balanced, really. The 46% feels just right. The floralness lingers wonderfully. Feels golden. ✨

Poured a dram and caught this lovely gold hue right away – totally reminds me of local honey. The nose? Butterscotch upfront, then beeswax and nectars, kinda like walking past a garden full of dandelions and overripe apples. 🍯 At 46%, it’s got a nice warmth without being too harsh. First sip brings soft liquorice and a floral yet firm character, balanced like a good crumble with speculoos biscuits. There’s a touch of mead in there too. Really dig the dandelion and pansy notes that come through later, almost like sniffing early grey tea leaves. The citrus kick keeps it fresh, and that beeswax texture makes it feel quite rich. Powerful but not in-your-face – excellently balanced indeed. Finishes long with more liquorice wood and a whisper of mirabelles. Very fragrant all the way through. Quite the treat on a chill evening. 😊

Lovely balance on this one 🥃 Floral but still got a proper firm feel — honey, overripe apples, quince and a bit of butterscotch. There’s a soft Earl Grey thing going on, with gentle liquorice and a wee touch of oak. Quite powerful at 46%, but still smooth enough to just sit with.
