Nose
Bright lemony notes with a touch of fresh grains and subtle sweetness, akin to honeydew and molasses, with aromas of maple syrup and caramelized sugar, accompanied by fresh oak wood and delicate notes of rose hips.
Palate
The interplay of Dutch cocoa, ruby grapefruit zest, and hints of cherry creates a layered sweetness with a clean wheat-forward taste. The creamy texture develops in the mouth, transitioning into a robust, rounded profile, with fruity accents of cantaloupe and honeydew, rounded off with molasses and a hint of white sugar.
Finish
The journey concludes with a medium-length, warm-spiced, oaky finish, leaving a lasting impression of fruit-forward and chocolate undertones, smooth, medium-length, and harmonious, with sweet wood and sugar undertones.
