Nose
Profound notes of aged oak wood, delicate nuts, and a light sea breeze, with hints of honey, toffee, fig jam, and candied orange peel. [1, 2]
Palate
Complex and balanced, with honey, toffee, and a finely spiced texture. Juicy texture with soft florals, fresh peppermint, damp oak, tangerine, heather honey, mango, and tobacco. [1, 2, 4]
Finish
Long, smooth, and warming, with subtle maltiness, dry fruitiness, rounded menthol notes, soft liquorice, and dusty wood panels. [1, 2]
