Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with copper-gold brilliance and a warm, honeyed glow.
Nose
An elegant, waxy bouquet unfolds with polished oak, drifting into dark-fruit depth—figs and raisins—kissed by orange zest, toffee and vanilla. Subtle sherry sweetness threads through cocoa and spice, while leather, cedar and a whisper of tobacco linger, leaving a refined, aged Scotch perfume.
Palate
Silky and refined on the palate, with opulent dried fruit—fig and raisin—caramelized toffee and cocoa. Sherry notes mingle with creamy vanilla and toasted oak, while gentle spice weaves through orange zest and cinnamon. Full, balanced and lingering, finishing with a warm, elegant smoke and dark chocolate depth.
Finish
Silky, extraordinary finish that lingers with regal calm. Velvety oak, dark chocolate and dried fruit unfold slowly, threaded with spice and a gentle sherried warmth. The sweetness recedes to a refined tobacco-nutmeg finale, leaving a warm, lasting echo of decades in oak.
