Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep copper-amber with a luxurious mahogany core and a warm, burnished-gold glow.
Nose
Caramel and muscovado sugar lead a warm bouquet of rich dried fruits, ginger and nutmeg. Oak provides quiet structure as chocolate orange and raisins mingle, with a soft oak undercurrent tying the aroma together.
Palate
Dried fruits and rich fruit notes unfold with warm wood spice and ginger, delivering a dense, polished mouthfeel that coats the mouth with sweetness and spice and lingers into a long, refined finish.
Finish
Long, rich, and intensely fruity, the finish lingers with dried fruit and lush sherry, punctuated by bitter orange zest. Spices deepen the warmth as oak and subtle chocolate-orange notes imprint a persistent, polished finale.
