Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with copper-gold edges and a warm, honeyed glow.
Nose
Majestic, time-sculpted oak envelops the nose, releasing vanilla bean, toasted almond and warm caramel from the American hogshead. Dried plum and fig unfold with dark cocoa and espresso, while delicate spice—ginger and white pepper—creeps in on a quiet, resinous thread. Fifty years of maturation lends dignified depth, hinting at elegance and restrained refinement to come on the palate.
Palate
Silky, densely flavored, and warmed by its 59.2% presence, this unfolds with vanilla and toffee from American oak, layered over honeyed orchard fruit and toasted almond. A creamy texture carries bright citrus zest, a touch of spice—white pepper and nutmeg—and a long, contemplative finish of cocoa, dried fruit, and refined oak.
Finish
Silky, long finish that blankets the palate with vanilla and toffee, braided with honeyed oak and dried fruit. Gentle spice—cinnamon and clove—unfolds into polished leather and almond, before a warm, refined sweetness lingers, softly fading to a comforting glow.
