Tasting Notes
Colour
Radiant golden amber with warm honey and caramel undertones, glinting coppery in the light.
Nose
Warm honeyed malt unfurls with vanilla and toffee, framed by smooth oak. A delicate sherry whisper introduces dried fig and raisin, with orange zest and almond notes, while gentle spice threads through a creamy, balanced bouquet. Refined, inviting a slow, luxurious savor on the nose.
Palate
Silky and balanced, the palate opens with honeyed barley, toffee and orchard fruit. Sherry influence brings raisins, spice and a whisper of orange zest, all wrapped in warm vanilla and oak. The finish is long and refined, with gentle spice and a creamy, nutty undertone.
Finish
Silky, honeyed sweetness lingers into a long, luxurious finish, tempered by sherry-inflected depth. Velvet oak, toasted almond, and gentle spice unfold as notes of dried apricot, orange zest, and cocoa leave a warm, resinous echo on the palate. A refined, persistent warmth invites another sip.
