TASTING NOTES
NOSE
Dried apricots, lychee, blood orange, and roasted almonds with dried herbs, cherry blossoms, sultanas, a hint of roasted coffee, malt, and a delicate wisp of smoke — complex, harmonious, and quietly captivating.
PALATE
Light and sweet with honey, lemongrass, dark milk chocolate, nougat, mango, passion fruit, and spicy oak — banana, caramel, and ginger weaving through a smooth and mellow body of gentle but characterful depth.
FINISH
Medium-long, crisp, and warmly satisfying — cocoa, roasted coffee, vanilla, plum jam, baking spices, and a faint honey-sweetness lingering cleanly to the last.
