Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with honey-gold warmth and coppery highlights.
Nose
Warm, honeyed aromas of sun-warmed beeswax, vanilla-soaked oak and citrus zest. Bright lemon and orange notes mingle with subtle spice, while rich toffee and creamy dessert tones drift through polished bourbon oak, finishing with caramelized sugar and a lingering bakery sweetness.
Palate
Silky and medium-bodied, the palate blooms with honeycomb sweetness and bright citrus—orange and lemon zest—woven through vanilla and toasted oak from the bourbon cask. Rich dessert tones linger: custard, almond, caramel, with a measured spice. A clean, enduring finish carries warmth and a citrus-bright echo that evolves on the palate.
Finish
Long, honeyed finish with citrus zest and a final whisper of sweet oak, carried by rich dessert tones that echo softly and fade with a vibrant, enduring warmth.
