THE INK OF LEGENDS
Finished in Don Julio Añejo tequila casks.
Thick wisps of aromatic herbal smoke honour the ancient art of tattooing, clouds that slowly disperse in whispers of stories. The sweet scent of ripe plums lingers, as smoky black ink etches an outline of illustrious past generations ascending to legendary heights. Each work of art is a map of historic victories, imprinted on a living canvas.

Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep, burnished amber with coppery glints and a hint of mahogany at the edge—a sun-warmed bronze that shimmers with luxury.
Nose
Slightly medicinal at first, the nose blends carbolic soap with soothing rub into aromatic wood smoke, like driftwood by a beach bonfire. Intense herbal smoke rises, carrying a savory hint of barbecued pork. A touch of water softens the fire, revealing maritime breezes and dark, fruity depths, rendering the smoke more aromatic.
Palate
Creamy-smooth and mouth-filling at natural strength, the palate opens sweet and citrusy, with a touch of salt, then reveals juicy plum as the smoke deepens into a lip-tingling finish. A dash of water makes it sweeter and smokier.
Finish
Long and very smoky, with a salty tang that lingers and a touch of meatiness in the smoky aftertaste. The finish dries the palate, yet leaves a cooling, warm-hearted glow.
