Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with copper-gold sheen and a mahogany edge.
Nose
An elegant, time-worn aroma: polished oak and old sherry mingle with dried fig and raisin, bright orange zest and candied peel, whispers of toffee and vanilla, and a subtle walnut note. A faint tobacco and waxy polish lend dignified, investment-grade sophistication.
Palate
Silky, full-bodied and oily on the tongue. Dried figs, dates and raisins mingle with orange zest and vanilla, shaded by sherry sweetness. Toasted almond, cocoa and spice—clove and nutmeg—sit over polished oak, delivering a warm, opulent, lingering palate.
Finish
Long and luxurious, the finish unfolds with velvet warmth and stately depth. Dried fruits, orange zest and dark chocolate mingle with spice, carried by silky oak and a whisper of sherry, fading to a refined, lingering tail.
