Tasting Notes
👃 Nose
A rich and complex bouquet featuring dried fruits such as raisins, dates, and sultanas, layered with warm spices including cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger. Hints of vanilla, orange zest, and oak spice frame the aroma, creating a decadent and elegant nose that develops beautifully over time.
👅 Palate
Big-bodied and syrupy with a creamy, viscous mouthfeel that coats the mouth without overwhelming. Flavors of fruitcake, sultanas, dried plums, and figs blend with toasted oak and subtle spice notes, while the natural oiliness of the spirit balances the boisterous tannins from the European oak.
✨ Finish
Long and warming with lingering sherry influence, caramel, and oak spices. Sweet tobacco, cinnamon, and honey notes fade gracefully, leaving a pleasant aftertaste of fruits and spices with a touch of bitter chocolate and espresso.
