The nose is joyously zesty, presenting aromas of honey, lychee, juicy apricot, and pineapple, alongside frangipane and buttery croissant.

On the palate, generous layers of fruit lead the way, with juicy peach, poached pear, and tropical notes of pineapple. These are complemented by toffee and vanilla, creating a rich and creamy mouthfeel

The finish is moderately long and satisfying, featuring lasting flavours of cinnamon bun, warm pastries, and marzipan.
