Tasting Notes

Nose

The nose opens with amaretto, raisins and peaches dipped in melted brown sugar. A second visit shows deeper notes of walnut bread, marzipan and cloves.

Palate

A velvety, mouth-coating opening of stone fruit, rich caramel and coconut cream transitions into a weighty mid-palate of bananas and peaches roasted in brown sugar and spice.

Finish

The higher strength leads to a lovely drying balance to the hefty palate weight, with lingering notes of tropical fruits, chocolate and espresso.
