Tasting Notes
Colour
Rich golden amber with sunlit honey tones and a warm, inviting glow.
Nose
Opulent honeyed fruit and soft malt lift from the glass, with ripe pear and apple tempered by vanilla and warm toffee. Sherry nuance threads in fig and raisin, a whisper of cocoa, and a delicate spice of nutmeg, while polished oak frames the aroma in elegant, creamy sweetness.
Palate
Silky and honeyed, the palate opens with raisins and dried apricot, layered with orange marmalade and toffee. Subtle oak and spice—cinnamon, clove—bind the sweetness, while vanilla cream lends body. A lush, sherried depth coats the tongue, finishing long with warm fruit, nuts, and lingering honey.
Finish
An enduring finish of honeyed sweetness and soft orchard fruit, carried by velvety oak. Sherry cask notes emerge as dark plum and fig, touched by cacao and a whisper of spice, lingering with warm, refined grace long after the last sip.
