Nose
Surprisingly vibrant and floral, with notes of potpourri, rose water, Turkish Delight, sandalwood, and fresh oak. Meadow flowers, peaches, plums, and summer grass.
Palate
Pungent perfume notes, floral sherbet sweetness reminiscent of parma violets, lavender, sugar, heat, tropical fruits (pineapple, guava, clementine), bitter clove, and anise spice. Stewed figs, port, and whisps of peat.
Finish
A final sweet nutty note of marzipan, stewed fruit, peat smoke, brine, and warming oak spice.
