Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with copper-tinged edges and a sunlit honey-gold core.
Nose
Opulent vanilla and creamy toffee rise from toasted American oak, with sun-warmed citrus zest and orchard fruit. Subtle coconut and almond mingle with clean spice, while a whisper of waxy polish lingers on the crown. A confident, inviting nose that promises depth and refinement.
Palate
Silky and richly oak-driven, the palate delivers vanilla sweetness, creamy toffee and dark caramel, with coconut and cocoa from the American oak. Spices—cinnamon and clove—linger with orange zest, while refined tannins provide structure. A measured warmth from the 47.5% ABV carries through to a long, elegant finish.
Finish
Long, elegant finish of creamy vanilla and toffee that lingers with a gentle citrus zest and warming spice. The American oak threads through, leaving a velvet, caramel-sweet echo, slowly fading to hints of cedar and smoked sweetness. Persistent, poised, and remarkably refined.
