Tasting notes

Appearance: Coppery amber, perfectly limpid. Nose: Moderately intense but deep, with roasted and caramelised aromas accompanied by vanilla, candied orange and a discreet hint of sweet smoke. Palate: The attack is generous, with fruity, chocolatey and malty flavours, enriched by hints of banana and shortbread. The full, smooth texture reveals an admirable balance between well-integrated smoky notes and sweet aromas, with hints of toasted oak and a hint of saltiness. The finish is long and lingering, with perfectly harmonised sweet and smoky notes. Overall impression: An elegant, well-structured spirit that successfully combines deliciousness and complexity, despite a remarkably well-controlled high alcohol content.
