Tasting Notes

Nose

Beautifully mature and aromatic. Layers of dark honey, dried apricot, toffee, and crème brûlée intertwine with old oak, polished leather, and hints of tropical fruit. A delicate touch of ginger, cinnamon, and fig rounds out the bouquet with elegant complexity.

Palate

Rich, full-bodied, and velvety. Flavours of ripe mango, golden raisins, and candied citrus peel unfold first, followed by sweet malt, almond toffee, and warming spice. The 48% ABV delivers intensity without harshness, allowing notes of dark chocolate, sandalwood, and caramelised sugars to shine with extraordinary balance.

Finish

Long, luxurious, and deeply warming. Expect lingering notes of spiced oak, dried fruit, vanilla pod, and a refined hint of sweet tobacco. A finish that feels endless — a true hallmark of extended ageing.
