Nose
Aroma of baked citrus tarts entwined with notes of ginger and maple syrup. Layers of rich toffee, lashings of buttery vanilla and a delicate hint of oak.
Palate
A wonderfully complex array of flavours, from sweet honey and vanilla to spicy ginger and cinnamon, with a delicate oakiness.
Finish
Long and lingering, with a gentle warmth and a hint of spice.
