Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with a warm coppery glow and mahogany edge, a ruby-tinted shimmer at the rim, hinting at rich sherry maturation.
Nose
Stewed apple, dried fruits and winter spices mingle with caramelised brown sugar and roasted nuts, leading to rich dark chocolate with hints of beeswax polish, mature oak and orange citrus. A little water adds creamy milk chocolate, intense Seville orange top notes and a hint of cracked black pepper.
Palate
Stewed plum and red apple sit on a base of dried tobacco and charred oak, with a gentle smoke. A few drops of water unlock vibrant orange and lime citrus, followed by stewed red fruits, a warm ginger echo, and a subtle aniseed edge that lingers with refined smokiness.
Finish
Vibrant citrus fruits mingle with smooth strawberry and cream followed by hints of liquorice and gentle traces of lingering smoke on the finish. Superb!
