Nose
dark and rich with figs, muted allspice, an earthy note of fresh-turned garden soil, a bare whiff of peat, and a touch of honey.
Palate
spicy, intense, and peppery with figs, honey, an earthy touch of truffles, and as the pepperiness fades, notes of molasses and black tea come out.
Finish
subtle and lingering with a good balance of sweetness and earthiness.
