Sight
Bright golden amber with warm, sunlit transparency.
Nose
Fresh and inviting with bright citrus notes, honey, and vanilla bean. A gentle herbaceous quality emerges, reminiscent of fresh hay and white flowers, with underlying grain sweetness.
Palate
Smooth and approachable with creamy vanilla, honeycomb, and subtle orchard fruits. The palate shows excellent balance with a delicate spiciness and clean grain character that builds gradually.
Finish
Medium-length finish with lingering honey, vanilla, and a pleasant dry oak note.
