Nose: Salted almonds and fragrant, almost floral cardamom, pine oil, and dried berries. Burnt sugar and suggestions of citronella follow in time.
Palate: Savoury cooking herbs and spices take the lead, with notes of earthy forest floor and drying oak. Caramel-soaked prunes and raisins poke through, with that sherried oak bringing nutty sweetness.
Finish: Resinous wood oil, root ginger, and cinnamon sweeties bring tingles of warmth to the finish. Notes of fresh leather, dried pineapple, drying oak, and bittersweet orange peels linger.
