Our tasting notes.
Nose: Inviting aromas of stone fruits unfold, complemented by sweet raisons. Honeyed notes provide warmth while subtle dry cloves add complexity.
Palate: Rich and layered with almond pastry and crème brûlée creating a decadent foundation. Orange jam offers brightness against dark liquorice depth. The mouthfeel presents a luxurious oiliness while delivering gentle pot still spice characteristics. Biscuity and buttery undertones mingle with mulberry sweetness, accented by light herbal notes.
Finish: Impressive length with a warming character. Slightly dry, featuring recurring waves of baking spices that gradually fade but linger pleasantly.
