Nose
Notes of honeyed malt, dried apricots, sherry-soaked raisins, oak spice, toasted almonds, and a delicate wisp of smoke, with hints of green apple, pear, and anise.
Palate
Smooth and rounded, with flavors of vanilla cream, rich toffee, soft fruits like baked apples and pear compote, subtle spices (nutmeg, cinnamon), a touch of chocolate, and a sherried influence.
Finish
A smooth, lingering finish with notes of wood, sherry, honey, and a slight black licorice character, fading gently.
