Maltiply Tasting Profile

Nose: The high alcohol percentage is noticeable, but not distracting. Somewhat nutty to start, with macademias and mainly walnuts, but also plenty of fresh red fruits, like strawberry, plus some raspberry. There's even a hint of rum-soaked raisins, as well as sultanas. Very pleasant.
Palate: Lovely creamy texture, with hints of caramel and honey, but it also is quite spicy. Think chili peppers. While the nose is fairly well-rounded, the palate lacks balance, and is more youthful. Add water, and it becomes more nutty. Not much room left for any fruit flavours to leave an impact.
Finish: Spices linger for a little while.

The appeal is the contrast between caramel and honey sweetness and a distinctly spicy chili-pepper palate. The nose adds walnuts and fresh red fruit, giving the sweetness a livelier edge. There is a catch: the palate is described as less balanced and more youthful than the nose, and the fruit makes less of an impact there. A characterful combination, though the spice-sweetness interplay seems stronger than the overall balance.
