Tasting Notes
"The nose opens with heavy spices mingled with chocolate and licorice before blending in with small fruits for a wonderful fruit-chocolate taste. A floral note follows to tangle through your senses leaving a green-scented sugar aroma. On the tongue, honey and spices come through very quietly, but grows over time to caress the cheeks. The chocolate makes a return on the finish with a fragrant floral and fruity following."
