Panda courtesy of Theydon_Bois, cheers Colin! Golden colour, afew short-lived bubbles on top and aroma of blossom, herby, wood, honey. Taste is sweet, honey, blossomy, some herbal & spice notes, heather, woody hint, syrupy. Full bodied, low carbonation, lingering sweet floral finish. Very sippable.

Very enjoyable. Of course very sweet. Very blossomy I would say. Ample honeysuckle. A slight pale wood note. Faint acidity. Warming finish. Highly enjoyable in small dose.

375 ml bottle. Clear yellow gold pour. Aroma is really quite beyond my ability to describe--it is unique and herbal. Never sensed anything quite like it before. The taste is also quite unusual, complex and herbal. Palate is full. Finishes long and sweet. Overall: I really don't know what the hell I just drank, but I liked it. Its really cool when you taste something that is nothing like anything tasted before--and its good. Bought an extra bottle for the cellar.
