Tasting

How it drinks

Sight
Rich amber with deep golden hues, full-bodied appearance.
Nose
Rich sherry influence with dried apricots and raisins, layered with vanilla and toasted oak. Hints of dark chocolate and spiced nuts add complexity.
Palate
Full-bodied and warming with rich dried fruit, toffee, and chocolate notes. Spice develops mid-palate with a pleasant oiliness from natural cask strength.
Finish
Long, warming finish with persistent dried fruit, chocolate, and oak spice. Slight warmth lingers with hints of walnut and caramel.
