Nose
A succulent medley of exotic fruits, mango, pineapple, blood orange and ripe red berries are complemented by fresh herbs, aromatic oils and wood spices. Vanilla sweetness and treacle toffee add to the richness, while walnuts and toasted oak acknowledge the contribution from a supreme cask selection.
Palate
Incredibly rich in texture with a luxuriously fruity introduction. Ripe red fleshed plums, black cherries and summer berries are balanced by the prickle of a hint of chili oil. The taste evolves as cherry menthol introduces vanilla and cinnamon sweet spices combined with red pepper, nutmeg and toasted oak for an intriguing complexity.
Finish
A satisfyingly long balance of ripe fruit and wood spices, worthy of a journey of nearly three decades. Lingering dark fruit, sweet spice, aged oak, and gentle dryness taper slowly, leaving a refined, contemplative aftertaste with echoes of port wine and pot still warmth.
