Nose: A playful whiff of wellies mingles with soft, comforting caramel. Earthy vanilla and hints of dried fruits with time. Quirky yet warmly inviting.

Taste: Full bodied and characterful. The rubbery hint returns—think bicycle repair kit—balanced by almonds and rich homemade caramel pudding.

Finish: Long and indulgent. Pure, creamy waves of homemade caramel pudding carry the finale.

Comment: Quirky charm wrapped in caramel bliss.
