Tasting

How it drinks

Sight
Deep gold
Nose
Highly fragrant and expressive. Golden syrup, sultana, and ripe peach. Distinct nutty quality of hazelnut and walnut. Floral undertones with a ginger-like spicy aroma in the background.
Palate
Silky and sweet with delicate honeyed notes and vanilla custard. Golden syrup, hazelnut praline, and orange oil. Tropical fruit, peaches, sultana, and candied orange. Develops into toasted hazelnuts, walnuts, almond oil, cocoa bean, gingerbread, clove, and cinnamon. Late chamois leather and cigar box add depth.
Finish
Long and warming with lingering spice, nutty dryness, and a floral echo. Orange and cocoa notes persist.
