NOSE
Dried orchard fruit, overripe apricots, citrus sponge cake, vanilla fondant and subtle spice, malt and tropical fruit notes.
Not super complex, but elegant and buttery with strong fruity notes that remind me of the Nectar D’ Or in a way.
PALATE
Malt, dried orchard fruit, citrus sponge cake, vanilla, malt, roasted nuts, nutmeg and some touches of oak, copper and yellow raisins.
Based on the name, I was expecting more cake. I get some, and it’s nice, but it’s not a super cakey profile, more fruity.
FINISH
Med-long -> Fruit, oak, citrus and a nice bit of waxy vanilla as it fades out.
