Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with honey-gold sheen and a coppery edge.
Nose
Fresh barley and green apple lift the aroma, with lemon zest and a touch of honeyed sweetness. Vanilla and cream mingle with light oak, while sherry cask influence brings dried fig, raisin and a hint of orange zest. Almond and cocoa add depth, and a gentle cinnamon-nutmeg spice lingers, finishing on warm grain and orchard brightness.
Palate
Silky, medium-bodied on the palate, with creamy vanilla and citrus zest from the bourbon influence. Orchard fruit and honey give way to sherry-cask richness—orange-tinged raisin, fig, treacle and cocoa from oloroso and PX hogsheads. Spices—cinnamon and nutmeg—dress polished oak, while a dunnage-soft waxiness lingers into a long, citrus-kissed finish.
Finish
Silky, long finish that coats the palate with creamy vanilla and subtle oak, then blooms into rich dried fruits, fig and cocoa from the sherry-influenced casks. Warming orange zest and baking spices echo through the late length, leaving a refined, elegant fade.
