Tasting Notes
Colour
Deep amber with copper-gold highlights, a warm, honeyed glow that suggests caramel, toffee and toasted nut notes.
Nose
Fragrant caramel corn, new leather and ripe plums rise with a touch of light toffee, finished by a whisper of pipe tobacco. The nose is rich and inviting, hinting at depth, sweetness and refined old-bourbon elegance.
Palate
Rich and velvety on the palate, marshmallow sweetness intertwines with salted almonds, while nougat lends creaminess; figs and dates provide a ripe, dried-fruit backbone, finishing with a composed, lingering sweetness.
Finish
Smooth, composed and richly sweet, the finish lingers with caramel and toffee, a delicate note of dried fruit, and a refined warm glow that softly wanes.
