Nose
Fresh with floral scents, gentle smoke, freshly peeled apples, citrus notes, tropical fruits, subtle chocolate, coastal aromas of damp stones, wooden pillars, and salty air.
Palate
A strong kick of pepper, cinnamon, and oak, followed by fleshy fruits, crumbled caramel, a hint of smoke, a vegetal character, and ginger sharpness. Vanilla sweetness, chocolate, and soft coconut notes also appear.
Finish
Lingering spices with chili heat, tealeaves, salt, and avocado, with a thin layer of cold ash remaining.
