Tasting

How it drinks

Sight
Medium amber with warm golden highlights and good body.
Nose
Complex blend of vanilla oak, dried fruit, and subtle spice. Notes of caramel with underlying grain sweetness and gentle wood spice.
Palate
Rich and well-balanced with oak-driven vanilla, hints of raisin and prune from sherry influence. Smooth texture with warming spice and depth.
Finish
Long finish with lingering oak, dried fruit, and gentle warmth. Sophisticated and memorable conclusion.

Tasting notes are AI-assisted and still being refined.
