Tasting Notes
Colour
Velvet deep amber-gold with copper highlights and mahogany undertones.
Nose
Opulent, mahogany-rich nose of dark fruits—fig, raisin and cherry—woven with aged sherry. Velvety toffee, roasted almond, orange zest and a kiss of cocoa, backed by oak, leather and spice.
Palate
Silky and substantial, this 50-year blend coats the palate with a velvet, sherry-kissed sweetness. Rich dried fig and raisin mingle with dark cocoa, toffee and a whisper of espresso, while polished oak and gentle spice frame the center. The finish is long and refined, with almonds, clove and a final warming gloss that lingers in elegant harmony.
Finish
An enduring, sherry-soft finish coats the palate with warm, ruby sweetness. Dried fruits—raisins and figs—mingle with cocoa, toasted almond and spice, as oak ebbs into a long, graceful fade of cinnamon and orange zest.
