Complex and deep, with sherry, creamy peat, honey, vanilla, salted minerals, earth, hay, and herbal notes. Also, freshly cut grass, banana, strawberry, melon, orange peel, nutmeg, almonds, smoked tea, old books, incense, passion fruits, mangos, white currants, ripe peaches, mint, liquorice tea, cigar box, hints of shoe polish, and apple skins. Subtle smoke in the background.
Palate
Powerful and floral, with sherry, cocoa, salted caramel, peat, spicy oak, and citruses. Creamy milk chocolate, orange peel, walnut, jasmine green tea, and earth. Stronger and peatier, with spices like pepper, ginger, and cardamom. Lots of citrus fruits (grapefruit, oranges). Smoky and peaty flavors intertwine with notes of dried fruits, spices, and a touch of oak. Velvety texture.
