Tasting

How it drinks

Sight
Deep amber with reddish-brown highlights; rich and inviting
Nose
Dark chocolate dominates — cacao nibs, cocoa powder, and chocolate truffle. Dried fruit (raisin, date), vanilla, and gentle orange. Subtle espresso and warm oak. A collaboration with Jordi Roca exploring chocolate and whisky harmony
Palate
Medium-full body. Rich dark chocolate, cacao, and chocolate truffle layered with dried fruit, vanilla, and subtle orange zest. Warm oak spice, gentle cinnamon, and espresso undertones. The chocolate character is genuinely pronounced — not merely suggested. Smooth and indulgent
Finish
Medium-long finish. Dark chocolate and cacao linger with dried fruit, vanilla, and gentle warmth. Clean and chocolatey to the end
