Judging Results
Medal / Award Gold
Overall Score 95
Judge 1 buttery lime curd, intense fruit, nice weight, long finish, phenolics carrying limey fruit nicely - bitter almond adds complexity
Judge 2 bitter and sour - lots of granny smith apple peel - too austere
Judge 3 touch of straw, some ripe developed honeysuckle aromas, mandarin cream texture
Associate Judge Ripe, mellow, peach skin and malt. Great flavours, intensity, nice bite, savoury finish. Malty finish just knocks it down.
