Official tasting notes
Honey-laced macadamia oil and butterscotch candies rest below a world of apothecary aromas. Be prepared for this to stay on your palate long after the last sip. Apricots, peaches and salted butterscotch from the spirit lace into sticky dates, hazelnuts and damson plums from the Tawny, met by ancient spices and dark chocolate notes from the French oak cask. A trifecta of flavour.
