Tasting Notes
Colour
Warm golden amber, with a rich honey glow and a soft coppery shimmer.
Nose
Layered smoke and spice rise over vanilla-soaked oak. Peat and juniper mingle with toasted oak, while mineral-salted air and a touch of tar deepen the aroma. Tobacco leaves unfold beside pear fudge, ginger and a hint of arrak sweetness, all carried by a glossy vanilla backdrop.
Palate
Peat and juniper mingle with a saline bite as smoke tightens on the palate, more pronounced than the nose suggested. Vanilla and toasted oak ride a peppery spiciness, with notes of pickled figs and pear fudge. Medium-bodied, chewy oak, and a lingering, smoky finish.
Finish
Spicy, smoky and oaky to the finish, with tar and tobacco leaves and bright notes of pickled figs and pear fudge.
