Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with copper-gold glow and burnished mahogany edges.
Nose
Potent, inviting aromas of vanilla and toffee mingle with brown sugar and oak, framed by bold rye spice. Subtle apple sweetness, dark cherry, and hints of leather and cherry pipe tobacco emerge as the bouquet broadens, underscored by baking spices—cinnamon and clove—hinting at the cask-strength depth beneath.
Palate
Bold, full-bodied palate of rye spice: pepper, cinnamon, clove, layered with vanilla, caramel and toasted oak. Subtle apple sweetness with leather and cherry pipe tobacco. Rich, cask-strength warmth; long, warming finish.
Finish
Long, warming finish with a brazen spice kick and a sweet, oaky aura. Cinnamon and pepper meet caramel and vanilla, while subtle notes of apple, leather and cherry pipe tobacco linger, fading into a softly toasted, lasting warmth.
