Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with coppery mahogany undertones and a ruby-bronze glow.
Nose
Opulent sherry-led aroma, rich with dark fruit—figs, raisins, and plum—nuanced by lacquered toffee and caramel. Orange zest, cocoa, and a whisper of vanilla mingle with Miyagikyo’s delicate orchard fruits, while warm sherry-spice layers add depth. The nose promises a lush, sweetly complex palate, balanced by elegant malt and oak.
Palate
Silky, full-bodied and richly sherried, the palate delivers a warm, wine-dark sweetness. Dried fruits—raisin, fig, prune—bind with cocoa, toffee and a whisper of orange zest. Nutty spice—cinnamon, clove—and subtle malt echo the oak, while a caramel sweetness lingers. It rounds to a long, velvety finish, true to Miyagikyo’s elegant, fruit-forward core with sherry depth.
Finish
Long, luxurious finish: rich sherry sweetness lingers on the palate, with dark fig and date, orange zest and cocoa, all woven through velvety oak, and a warm spice that settles into a satin-soft fade.
