Flavour profile
Nose
Opens with the aroma of freshly based homemade sultana scones, clotted cream and fig jam. There is also wild honey with the floral accents of orange blossom and rose. With time some herbal aromas emerge giving hints of parsley and sage.
Palate
The palate is elegant and well weighted with a waxy texture carrying the flavour across the palate. There is roasted mixed nuts with cinnamon and nutmeg, sweet tobacco, brown sugar and the signature flavour of amaretto.
Finish
Lingering and delicate with hints of well brewed black tea, stone oven baked rye bread and that same floral scented wild honey.
