Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with coppery glow and sunlit honey-gold edges.
Nose
Rich, crisp aromas of honeyed orchard fruit—apple and pear—complemented by a sweet malt backdrop. At high proof, the fruit shines with a warm, inviting honeyed glow.
Palate
Opulent on the palate, honeyed sweetness mingles with crisp orchard fruits—apple, pear, a hint of peach—set on a sturdy malt backbone. At 59.5%, a warming, spicy lift threads through with subtle oak. Sherry-cask depth broadens the finish, leaving a long, fruity, softly malted glow.
Finish
Long, honeyed finish with crisp orchard fruits lingering over a soft malt, powered by a warm, peppery kick from its 59.5% strength. Pear and apple notes fade to a refined sweetness, leaving a subtle spice and a clean, persistent glow.
