Maltiply Tasting Profile
Nose
Delicate and impressive depth with notes of vanilla, butterscotch, white chocolate, rich honeycomb, cinnamon, nutmeg, ripe green melon, kiwi, apples, pears, stone fruit, baking spices, and clove.
Palate
Full-bodied with balanced and rich flavors, an initial prickle of chili oil, sweet fruit notes of caramelized pear, orange zest, vanilla, chocolate, peaches, melons, mangos, heather honey, sugarcane syrup, peanut butter, orange blossom, baklavas, and ripe bananas.
Finish
Quite delicate and smooth, with spices fading to lingering confectionary sweet notes, soft fruits, oak tannins, coconut, and mangos.
