Nose
Initial notes of cane sugar and vanilla intertwine with pepper and nutmeg spices, complemented by sweet orchard fruits, white chocolate fudge, and polished antique wood notes.
Palate
A tangy fruit sweetness with orange peel and sweet pear, alongside classic pot still spices and mild chili oil, balanced by a constant background of charred oak.
Finish
Satisfyingly long, with fruits slowly fading as oak and spices linger in a warm, elegant close.
