Tasting

How it drinks

Sight
Deep mahogany with rich copper undertones.
Nose
Exceptionally refined with aged oak, dried fruits, and a waxiness reminiscent of old furniture polish. Notes of prune, raisin, and a delicate wisp of cigar box emerge alongside honey and caramel.
Palate
Silky and complex with layers of dried fruit compote, aged spirits character, and integrated wood notes. The palate reveals toffee, antique leather, and a subtle nuttiness with a refined sweetness.
Finish
Very long finish with persistent oak, dried fruits, and a warming spice that gracefully fades. Leaves an impression of elegance and time-honored craftsmanship.
