- Nose
- Tropical fruits like mango and papaya, interwoven with delicate smoke and mild black pepper. Vanilla and oak form the base, with notes of aged tea leaves, coffee cream, and a hint of cream cheese.
- Palate
- Oily and coats the mouth nicely. Nicely balanced with black pepper, papaya, apricot, honey, cashews, smoke, sea salt, malty and creamy notes. Fascinatingly sweet with Japanese strawberries drizzled in a balsamic vinegar reduction, and a jammy theme with forest berries.
- Finish
- Long, with vanilla, malty, and delicately smoky notes. Lingering red fruits and a subtle cream cheese note in the background.
