Nose
Round and complex with bright tangerine, lemon, orange, caramel, honey, dark chocolate, salted nuts, toasted cereal grains, and hints of peat smoke. Also warm caramel, vanilla, and toasted oak.
Palate
Less sweet than expected, with bright green apple, orange, tangerine, spicy black pepper, toffee, cocoa, and a smoky element of tobacco and peat. Soft and fruity with orange and chocolate flavors. Layers of dried fruit, spice, and a hint of smoke.
Finish
Lingering spice with salty sweet chocolate-covered caramel and wisps of campfire. Smooth and warm, with vanilla, soft oak, and a whisper of citrus zest. Light finish with sweet vanilla, caramel, and apricot.
