Tasting
How it drinks
- Sight
- Deep amber with rich mahogany notes.
- Nose
- Sophisticated bouquet of dried figs, honeyed malt, and old leather. Notes of toasted oak, cinnamon, and a hint of tobacco leaf.
- Palate
- Mature and silky with layers of dried fruit, caramel, and warming spices. The complexity reveals hints of dark chocolate, old oak, and subtle smoke.
- Finish
- Extremely long and warming finish with persistent dried fruit, leather, and a gentle spiced oak finale. Dignified and memorable.
