Tasting Notes
Nose
Deep sherry richness with dried figs, dates and dark raisins, layered with roasted nuts, leather and polished oak. Toasted almonds, orange peel and a subtle saline lift add freshness, alongside hints of cocoa and cinnamon.
Palate
Full-bodied and velvety, with treacle, toffee and chocolate-coated cherries balanced by walnuts, espresso and dark fruitcake. Honeyed nuts and citrus zest bring elegance.
Finish
Long and warming, with molasses, toasted oak, caramelised orange and nutty sherry fading into soft cocoa and gentle spice.
