Nose
A captivating medley of sweet lime, peat, caramel, and vanilla sugar. Yellow raisins and gingerbread add a comforting sweetness, while a subtle farmy touch lends an earthy dimension. With water, notes of orange, grains, exotic fruits, plums, creamy advocaat, almond paste, and a touch of haricots emerge.
Palate
Bold and well-balanced with peat and lime taking center stage, accompanied by toffee, gingerbread, orange, dark chocolate, strawberries, and a light grassy touch. Nuances of new spirit, ashes, honey, mango, and rooibos tea contribute to the complexity.
Finish
A lingering symphony of peat, toffee, lime, coffee, and dark chocolate. Briny notes and ashes intermingle with spices, featuring hints of cinnamon and citrusy lemon.
