Medium deep amber colour with a light green rim indicating age. Intense and layered nose blending fine wood, pepper,clove, candied ginger, tobacco, marsipan, almond, nutmeg, dried fruit and honey. The palate has plenty of warmth and flavour intensity with a balanced alcoholic sensation, spicy dried fruit flavours with nutty and nougat notes, fine level of complexity and integrated wood with a substantial and lingering finish.
