Tasting Notes
Official Tasting Notes
Nose: Rich raisin aromas infuse with notes of fragrant apple and cigar box. Smooth toasted almonds give way to the dark cherry and brown sugar undertones.
Palate: Intense festive spices lead to Seville orange peel and soft garden mint. Rich Medjool dates and roasted coffee bean flavours are balanced by cracked black pepper.
Finish: Full and spicy finish with lingering citrus and delicate smoky notes.
