Description
This exceptional single cask release has been additionally matured in a MOSCATEL SHERRY CASK and raises a toast to Notting Hill Gate station.
Originally opened on the 1st October 1868, Notting Hill Gate station was extensively rebuilt in the 1950s in order to link up the Circle and District lines with the latterly constructed Central line. The area earned its name for its tollgate which was established by the Turnpike Trust and only removed in 1864. Rich with entertainment, Notting Hill hosts Europe’s largest street festival – the Notting Hill Carnival as well as the popular cosmopolitan Portobello Market which runs the length of Portobello Lane.
On the nose you get tinned pineapple and peach juices which are sweetened further by brown sugars whilst macerated orange peels join homemade lemonade, the palate is richly composed with clementine and nectarine strudel served with a side plate of cinnamon, ginger and nutmeg dusted baked apple, while the finish joins toasted oak and shaved chocolate with spent coffee grounds.
This realease is one of only 342 bottles.
