Cask No. 37.85 Spicy & sweet

EASTERN PROMISE

sold out

We were transported to a Thai street food market with a never-ending variety of fruits as well as a wide selection of dishes on offer all smelling of exotic spices being cooked right in front of us. The stall we stopped at served barbecued spice-rubbed chicken with a kumquat-lemongrass dressing.

We decided to have a plateful of it and the mouthfeel was a delicate balance between sweet and spice with a light smoky finish. After some water we were drawn to aromas of rice noodles, shrimp and scallion rolls which we dipped in a soy and oyster sauce - weird but wonderful!
