Tasting Notes
Colour
Dark amber with mahogany hues and copper-gold gleam.
Nose
An maritime, nervy aroma where rusk mingles with seaweed, touched by a fleeting whiff of lighter fluid and acrylic, finishing with a delicate thread of white chocolate.
Palate
On the palate, watercolour sweetness mingles with raisin and moist earth, weaving through spiced wood, apple cake, and bright orange peel. Scallion and sawmill notes emerge, finishing with a hint of salmon.
Finish
Petrol vapour lingers, weaving licorice and barley with soy sauce and shrimp; dough and rubber drift over the wood, finished by a bright, fleeting burst of fireworks.
