Bottle at Black Heath, pours a hazy pale golden with a tiny wheat. Aroma brings out lots of clove and nutmeg, with subdued vanilla and a trace of wildflower honey. Flavour is along the same lines, being dominated by a melange of the aforementioned spices, finishing with floral honey notes. Only lightly sweet. Interesting.
