Tasting Notes
Colour
Sun-kissed golden honey with warm amber depths and subtle coppery highlights.
Nose
Beguiling first impressions of fresh, sweet fruit—lemon zest and white grape—enhanced by exotic pink grapefruit and ripe mango, all resting on a faint mossy base that evolves into freshly ironed linen. A distinctly spicy, woody lift soars above; with a splash of water these aromas dry and reveal a pinch of white pepper.
Palate
Creamy-smooth and full on the palate, it floods the senses with sweet malt-forward fruit—rum-toffee, spiced pineapple and green banana—over crisp, drying oak. A peppery bite threads through, keeping the finish lively. A dash of water softens the texture further while preserving the spicy edge.
Finish
Short and honeyed, the finish offers a bright peppery bite that lingers briefly. With water, the oaky spice comes forward, lengthening the sweetness into a warm, spiced finale.
