TASTING NOTES
COLOUR
Bright gold.
NOSE
Rich and pulpy. Initially, a delicate herbal peat takes center stage, quickly giving way to fruity (yellow melon, walnut), herbal (dandelion, grass), and floral (daffodil, daisy) aromas. As it aerates, gentle yet intense spices (cinnamon, nutmeg) add depth to the aromatic palette.
PALATE
Lively and elegant. More expressive than the nose, the flavor profile is smoothly vanilla-laden (milk tart). It then gains volume, revealing citrus (lemon, grapefruit) and green licorice flavors. Shifting course, it ventures into vibrant fruity notes (Williams pear, Golden apple).
FINISH
Long and silky. Radiant and fresh, the tasting reaches its equilibrium with refined mentholated, honeyed, and fruity flavors of great intensity. In the aftertaste, candied lemons and pears spread their tangy, liqueur-like juice around the palate.
