Tasting

How it drinks

Sight
Deep burnished gold with amber highlights
Nose
Aromatic and perfumed — dried rose petals, citrus blossom, and vanilla. Rich dried fruit, toffee, and warm oak. Gentle floral character from collaboration with master perfumer Roja Dove. Orange, ginger, and subtle nutmeg
Palate
Full-bodied. Dried fruit, toffee, and dark chocolate with distinctive floral complexity — rose water, orange blossom, and heather. Warm oak, vanilla, and ginger. The perfumer's influence is subtle but present, adding aromatic layers. Rich sherry backbone
Finish
Long, aromatic finish. Dried fruit and floral notes linger with warm oak, chocolate, and gentle spice. Uniquely perfumed for the Edition series
