- Nose
- Warm vanilla, stewed apples, treacle glaze, liquorice, and waves of sherry. Notes of slightly burnt grain, peanut oil, red ginseng candy, damp earth, charred cinnamon, cocoa powder, and rubber. Citrus from orange peel, dried prunes, maraschino cherries, black cherries, dried dates, figs, gingerbread, dried cloves, and spicy cinnamon powder.
- Palate
- Full and balanced with spiced fruit loaf, plum jam, and dark chocolate. Creamy texture with some dryness, raspberry jam-like acidity and sweetness, crushed cloves, black pepper, grilled pineapple, plum extract, and salty sea salt chocolate.
- Finish
- Long and richly sherried, warm, lingering, with dried fruits and soft spice. Smooth with notes of dried cloves, tobacco leaf, and damp clay. Followed by citrus of raspberry or plum, dark chocolate, and a light char, finishing very dry with tannic bitterness of red grape skin, spicy black pepper, and bitter cacao nibs.
