Nose
An interesting mix of floral, leafy and mineral notes; some peppery peat too and some lemon and sweet pear. Gets sweeter as it sits and a malty, cereal note emerges. More expressive with a few drops of water with the floral notes expanding along with the cereal; some vanilla too now. After a minute or two there's more fruit: sweet cherries and lemon peel.
Palate
Comes in (indistinctly) sweet with the pepper behind. Nice oily texture. Very closed at full strength. With water: loads of zesty lemon along with peppery olive oil and sweet floral accents. Vanilla, coconut milk, overripe pineapple, grapefruit juice, caramel, and a bit of tobacco in the background.
Finish
Medium-long. At full strength it's too tight—the alcohol makes the biggest impression with some citrus and grainy notes under it. Water knocks the grain out and the notes that emerge on the palate hang out a good while. Fairly oaky and slightly earthy here with a bit of vanilla and tobacco lingering.
