Nose
Chocolaty sherry at both its heaviest and its brightest. Very old Demerara rum, ristretto, tar liqueur and beef stock. Chocolate, various herbs (parsley, chives), smoked meat and just whiffs of wood smoke, or charcoal. Artisan strawberry jam. With water, a magnificent development on aromatic herbs, wormwood, aniseed, sorrel, celery, absinthe, and magnificent oak.
Palate
Even more chocolate than in the nose, more chocolate than in chocolate. Chocolate filled with orange marmalade and just bits of coffee. With water, it further unlocks.
Finish
Long, a tad drier, with some 'black' tannins akin to those of Russian tea. And bitter chocolate.
