Nose
Full-bodied aroma with spiced biscuits, vanilla cream, orange zest, Asian pear, red banana, sultanas, and a hint of airy oakiness.
Palate
Very smooth with caramel texture, soft peaches, plums, juicy raisins, soaked sultanas, sweet cakey spice, bitter chocolate, and a refreshing citrus zing.
Finish
Long lasting with apricot, oak, sweet fruity zest, creamy barley, coriander seed, yellow fruits, digestive biscuits, and whispers of smoked oak and candied apricots.
