Official tasting notes.
Nose: Rich fruit and nut dark chocolate, latte coffee complemented with light leather and pipe tobacco notes. A mild citrus, similar to lemon sherbet lollies.
Palate: The initial rum cask maturation permeates with notes of salted caramel, and pecans. These are integrated with notes of black coffee, dark brown sugar, and chocolate. Followed up with chocolate waffles with maple syrup and candied citrus.
Finish: A medium to long finish with biscuit crumb, roasted grains, cacao nibs and a gentle spice.
