Bottle from Fountainhall wines, Aberdeen. It pours hazy golden - orange with a thick fluffy white head. The aroma is sweet, spicy, cereal, nuttiness, farmhouse style white bread, sponge cake, biscuits, candi sugar, pear, melon and apricot. The taste is dry and prickly upfront, nip of booze, warming, spicy, clove, stone fruits, apricot, also estery vibes, pear, honeydew melon, damp grass, herbal accents, sponge cake, biscuit and cereal with a firmly dry finish with a nip of booze. Medium body and moderate to high foamy carbonation. Decent Tripel all in all.
