Tasting Notes
Colour
Burnished amber with copper-gold highlights and a mahogany undertone.
Nose
Coffee with a light kiss of honey on toasted rye, balanced by dark chocolate, with subtle notes of pine needles and linseed oil.
Palate
Liquorice and dried apricot unfold on the palate, braided with creamy vanilla caramel, coffee and cocoa. A bold charred oak backbone lends warmth and a hint of charred wood smoke, while rye spice provides structure, finishing with a drying, pine-tinged note.
Finish
Exquisite, lingering finish: espresso and dark chocolate subside into charred oak and vanilla caramel, while dried apricot and licorice echo softly. A final wisp of toasted rye smoke lingers, leaving a warm, rye-spiced memory.
