Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with mahogany undertones and a coppery glow.
Nose
Opulent and warming, the nose reveals dark dried fruits—raisin, fig and sultana—woven with rich oloroso sherry. Nutty almond and walnut deepen the body, while orange zest, caramel and a touch of cocoa brighten with a soft, spiced sweetness. A whisper of oak and spice lingers, hinting at the cask-strength maturity within.
Palate
Silky, full-bodied on the palate, layers of dark fruit mingle with roasted almond and toffee as rich Oloroso notes cloak the spirit. Dried fig, raisin sweetness and baking spice unfold against cocoa and orange zest, with warm oak lending structure and a long, velvety finish.
Finish
Long, opulent finish washed in Oloroso sherry. Dried fig and raisin linger with toasted almond and orange zest, while rich toffee and velvety oak unfold slowly. A gentle spice coat—cinnamon, clove—adds warmth as the cask-strength sweetness fades into a lasting cocoa-nut finish.
