Tasting Notes
Colour
Rich amber-gold with warm copper undertones and a sunlit, honeyed glow.
Nose
Fragrant and inviting, the bouquet melds sun-warmed fruit salad with sweet fig rolls and marshmallows, brightened by grapefruit and orange zest. Cherry lingers through the aroma, while a subtle whisper of salted peanuts and licorice adds a refined, savory edge, giving a poised, intriguing perfume with promising depth.
Palate
Silky, full-bodied on the palate, a creamy fruit-salad sweetness unfurls into fig rolls, marshmallows and grapefruit zest. Cherry and orange peel lift the mid-palate, touched by a saline note of peanuts, with liquorice weaving through. A long, nuanced finish lingers, revealing depth and elegance; best neat or with a few drops of water.
Finish
Long, evolving finish with citrusy grapefruit and orange zest giving way to cherry and fruit-salad sweetness. Notes of fig rolls and marshmallow linger, while a subtle thread of salted peanuts and liquorice carries through the tail, leaving a persistent, nuanced warmth and a refined barley-driven glow.
