The magic Faraday tree

Wales

An instantaneous torrent of pure fruit juices! Straight away the panel detected mangos, guava, watermelon, pineapple and banana puree. Exotic and deeply concentrated with further notes of blackcurrant, cola cubes and baked apples. Water brought a sudden and impressively clear rummy note, along with sticky toffee pudding, date molasses and bubblegum. The palate was like un-diluted diluting juice! Extremely thick, syrupy and concentrated. Plum jam, confit melon, pineapple juice, elderflower cordial, gooseberry fool and blowtorched mango. Water brought more impressions of various fruit jams and preserves. Also marshmallows, nettles, bramble leaf and overripe cherries and plums.
