Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep golden-amber with a coppery glow and mahogany undertone.
Nose
Opulent and redolent, the nose pours warmth: dark fruit compote of fig and raisin, layered with sherry-soaked sweetness and polished oak. Candied orange peel, vanilla, and dark chocolate weave through, while spice notes of cinnamon and clove add depth. A whisper of cedar and leather completes the luxurious, velvety aroma.
Palate
Opulent and velvety on the palate, a deep sherried sweetness coats the tongue. Dried fig, date and orange zest unfold with dark chocolate, espresso and warm spice, grounded by polished oak. The finish is long and refined, with lingering spice, burnt sugar and a touch of leather.
Finish
Silky, exceptionally long finish: orange zest and dried fig unfold into dark chocolate and cacao, while vanilla-caramel sweetness rests on refined oak. Gentle cinnamon and clove spice lingers, leaving a warm leather-tobacco echo that slowly dries to a polished, sophisticated finale.
