Nose
A symphony of dried fruits, honey, and subtle spices. Raisins, figs, and apricots dance with hints of vanilla and oak. Fresh sweet sherry with crème caramel and butterscotch notes, alongside dense dark chocolate, cigar box, and old oak furniture with leather and Cognac-like rancio.
Palate
Velvety texture with rich toffee, dark chocolate, and nuttiness mingling with oak. Assertive spiciness, treacle toffee, chocolate ice-cream, and sherry-soaked raisins. Christmas Cake elements, tobacco, chocolate orange brownies, coffee beans, chewy dried fruit, with sparks of cinnamon and black pepper.
Finish
A lingering embrace with echoes of dried fruits and soft oakiness. A wonderful balance of sherry, spiced fruits, and cinnamon, with an everlasting sweetness. Long finish boasting thick notes of Sherry and butterscotch, developing Seville orange marmalade and ginger.
