Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber-gold with mahogany depth and coppery highlights, a warm, luxurious glow.
Nose
Rich blackcurrant preserves mingle with maple toffee, balanced by complex wood aromas and aromatic spices, evoking an antique humidor.
Palate
Rich fruit notes of dried figs, maraschino cherries, dates, plums and dried apricot mingle with premium milk chocolate, evoking Black Forest gateau. Subtle wood spices and a leathery meatiness add depth, leading to an unctuous, velvety mouthfeel.
Finish
A delicate, sweet floral finish, like gourmet Turkish Delight, lingering softly with a gentle perfume and subtle spice.
