Tasting Notes
"As promised, find a highly sweet nose, with a hefty dose of fruit in the form of apricot, as well as honey, port, cocoa powder and a light spiciness. The palate is drier than the nose would indicate, delivering spicy, oaky notes along with chocolate, more honey and the aforementioned apricot, but also peaches, plums and red fruits. The finish is long, warm and also dry, and is highly perfumed and floral, with a subtle honey sweetness which ties the whole dram together. Open it up with a bit of water to deliver more fruitiness in the form of candied and tropical fruits."
