Tasting Notes
Colour
Natural amber-gold with a warm, honeyed glow.
Nose
A warm, inviting nose of vanilla and rich toffee, lifted by oak and spice. Nutmeg and ginger dance with lemon basil, while pear lends a crisp, orchard-fruit brightness, creating a layered, honeyed bouquet that hints at sweetness and subtle oak influence.
Palate
Fresh and sweet on the palate, caramel drifts into poached peaches and ripe pear, followed by a velvety toffee sweetness. Light oak spice—from nutmeg to a whisper of ginger—lends warmth and a delicate, lingering finish.
Finish
Long and sweet, with caramel and toffee lingering alongside vanilla and gentle oak spice; soft notes of nutmeg and ginger subtly fade, leaving a fruity whisper of poached peach and ripe pear.
