A funky, sweet and slightly sharp nose of artichokes, honey, a bit of dried lemongrass, and a little golden syrup. There’s almost a mustiness to it. The palate is very sweet and peppery. I get loads of honey upfront, quickly followed by cayenne and a hint of cinnamon. There’s not a lot more going on besides this sweet heat but it’s good. The mouthfeel is so so, a tad thin yet coating. Certainly no complaints. The finish is nice, sweet but not cloyingly so, and hints at sugar cane and Honey Nut Cheerios. An interesting sipper or cocktail base for sure. Nose: 6 Taste: 7 Body: 6 Finish: 7
