Tasting Notes
An intense initial aroma of polished hardwood, exotic spices, prune syrups and manuka honey gives way to tertiary notes of muscovado sugar, brown bread, long-aged Chateau d’Yquem and even hints passion fruit and dried mango. Becomes increasingly luscious and exotic with time and air. Water brings out bittermints, milk chocolate, praline and an abundance of orange oils, satsuma peel and citrus essences - almost pithy in fact. The palate is a concentrated morass of brown sugars, old agricole rhums and cocktail bitters. Notes of pumpernickel bread, cedar wood, pipe tobacco, linseed oil, camphor and expensive liquorice. With reduction there’s dried cranberry, aged Pinot Noir, cola cubes and incense.
