Tasting

How it drinks

Sight
Rich amber with reddish-brown undertones.
Nose
Dried fruit and stone fruit with notes of toffee and dark chocolate. Warm spice, cinnamon, and a subtle sherry influence create complexity. Oak and vanilla provide a solid base.
Palate
Full-bodied and warming with layers of dried apricot, fig, and date. Toffee and caramel sweetness balance with spice notes of cinnamon and nutmeg. The mouthfeel is rich and slightly viscous.
Finish
Long, warming finish with lingering spice, chocolate, and oak. A pleasant drying effect from the sherry influence.

Tasting notes are AI-assisted and still being refined.
