Tasting Notes
Colour
A rich, burnished amber with coppery highlights and a warm honey-gold core.
Nose
Layered and alluring, this nose mingles sherry-like sweetness with coastal brightness. Dried fig and raisin mingle with vanilla, cocoa and toasted almond, while orange zest adds lift. Subtle spice—cinnamon, clove—and a whisper of maritime salt drift through velvety oak, hinting at the mystery within.
Palate
Silky and layered on the palate, with malt-led depth and dark fruit notes of raisin, fig and cherry from sherry whispers. Rich cocoa, caramel and vanilla mingle with warm spice—cinnamon, clove and nutmeg—while polished oak lends structure. A hints of salted caramel and tobacco emerge, finishing long, smooth and intriguingly enigmatic at 48.5% ABV.
Finish
Long, refined finish that lingers with dried fruit, cocoa and orange zest, tempered by spice and oak. A warm, velvety afterglow unfolds slowly, with a whisper of smoke that persists after the last sip.
