Appearance: Dark, brilliant amber. Nose: The bouquet is dominated by expressive roasted coffee, with woody, chocolate and toasted almond notes, complemented by hints of honey and exotic fruit. Palate: The attack is greedy, with a marked alcoholic presence that is well integrated into the overall aroma. The flavours evolve along toasty, coffee and caramel lines, enriched by dried fruit and a slight iodine dimension. The finish develops smoky and vegetal nuances with an interesting persistence. Overall impression: A well-balanced, complex spirit, with a fine aromatic intensity despite a relatively marked oakiness.
