On the nose immediate raisins, in fact rum & raisin. Dried orange peel. In time a clean walnut crispness appears. Water makes it softer, dried cherry, sultana, apricot & some honey. The palate is very sweet with plumped up dried fruit. Sultana cake with thick butter & underneath a bowl of nuts; hazelnut & macadamia. A slightly salty quality cutting through the unctuous texture.
