Tasting Notes
Colour
Rich amber with coppery mahogany highlights, a warm, sunlit glow suggesting sherry influence.
Nose
Elegant and malt-forward, the aroma unfolds with baked apple, dried apricot, and fig, layered over creamy vanilla and almonds. Subtle sherry notes add raisin-sugar depth, while oak and brown spice lend poised, old-world richness.
Palate
Silky toffee and honey greet the palate, giving way to orchard apple and pear with a soft malty lift. Creamy vanilla and light nutmeg drift through a rounded body, while gentle oak provides subtle weight. A hint of sherry rounds the fruit into apricot and raisin, finishing with warm spice and a refined, lingering glow.
Finish
Silky and long, the finish draws on sherry whispers: dried fig, raisin and cocoa mingle with orange zest and cinnamon. A warm oak glow lingers, tapering to a refined, velvet fade that invites another thoughtful sip.
