TASTING NOTES
Nose: A decadent opening of chocolate gateau and salted caramel is layered with savoury notes of soft cheese to a touch of turmeric and humidor mustiness. Hints of aged grappa and lees lend a complex, slightly funky depth.
Palate: Elegant yet boldly distinctive, the palate offers a contrast of sweet and savoury: light meringue and tart cherry mix with coastal salinity, earthy spice, and the tingling heat of Szechuan peppercorn. Notes of Angostura bitters and vermouth introduce a herbaceous edge, rounded off by a smoky hint of Korean BBQ ribs.
Finish: Long, rich, and complex, echoing the full spectrum of flavours with enduring warmth and layered character.
