Nose
Refreshing and sweet, with notes of malted barley, fruitcake, vanilla crème anglaise, and herbal hints. Subtle smokiness, marzipan, pineapple, orchard fruit, and a touch of Turkish Delight.
Palate
Sweet and fruity, with youthful black peppery smoky maltiness, vanilla, and herbaceous notes. Hints of apple, pear, and syrup, with a spicy pepper nuance.
Finish
Smooth and medium-long, with dry, spicy oak and lingering smokiness. A light peppery warmth balances the returning fruity notes, with a candy-like quality.
