Tasting Notes 

"Pale gold / white wine appearance. A light nose, with an initial clean and fruity notes. All very delicate, with little to indicate the higher strength.
Initial flavours are of vanilla & cream soda, with the higher strength bringing in some bolder fruit flavours with a hint of white pepper to finish."
