Tasting Notes
Colour
Imperial royal purple—a deep, velvety hue with a luminous, lacquered glow.
Nose
Sherry-rich and velvety on the nose, with fig and raisin fruit, dark cocoa and polished oak. Hints of toffee and orange zest mingle with clove and cinnamon spice. Subtle leather and tobacco deepen the bouquet, while a delicate floral note with an oriental tea-like edge evokes Formosa, finishing in refined, elegant warmth.
Palate
Silky and velvety, this 23-year-old blends sherry sweetness with dark fig and prune, lifted by orange zest and a touch of cocoa. Subtle spice and polished oak weave through, while a refined floral edge evokes Formosan elegance. The finish is long and luxurious, with a warm glow that lingers.
Finish
Silky, long finish coats the palate with velvety sherry-softness, revealing cocoa, dried plum and orange zest, a whisper of spice, and satin oak, leaving a refined, regal warmth that lingers.
