Tasting Notes

• Tasting Notes by Stuart P

  Nose: Soft, rich and creamy, with woodspice, cinnamon and dried fruit to the fore. Then notes of butterscotch and roasted nuts arrive, along with soft, fruity touches of mango, menthol and green apple.

  Palate: Rich and decadent, with plenty of weighty spice at first – cinnamon, clove and toasty oak – then softer notes of apricot and spring flowers. Lovely soft mouthfeel, and great balance.

  Finish: The spices and toasty oak linger longest, softly fading in unison.

  Comment: The skill in blending is obvious here, with delightful shades of light and dark, fruit and spice, floral and oak notes playing against each other.
