Description
Taynton Squash is a pear that captured the imagination of Sam & Beccy as soon as they started working with the pear orchard in Chew Stoke. The trees are the most magnificent in the orchard, large and healthy with great trunks, and the fruit is tiny, the size of cherries, and falls 15 metres onto the ground. But what fruit!
The result is quite unlike most perries: rich, complex and intense with some wild aromatics. Aromas of pear skin, quince, bee hive, pear drops, eucalyptus, lavender oil, good quality hay. The body is very full in the mouth, with slight bitterness in the tannins giving a herbal quality. Still fairly sweet on the pallet, this is great after dinner. Still medium perry. 750ml. 7.9%.
