I recall the scent of some kind of toilet powder - I believe she stole it from her mother's Spanish maid - a sweetish, lowly, musky perfume. It mingled with her own biscuity odor, and my feelings were suddenly filled to the brim; a sudden commotion in a nearby bush prevented them from overflowing - and as we drew away from each other, and with aching veins attended to what was probably a prowling cat, there came from the house her mother's voice calling her, with a rising frantic note - and Dr. Cooper ponderously limped out into the garden.
Mouthfilling and creamy-smooth, it is peachy and slightly spicy, with biscuity, toasty notes in a high-flavoured, moderately complex style, for drinking now or cellaring.
Another tester, however, found the biscuit extremely dry and referred back to the assessment rubric: “It didn’t have an even golden brown colour. It was biscuity, but wasn’t perfumed with golden syrup or earthy with oats. Would I feed it to my grandma? Probably not. She’d choke.”
