Nose: Warm custard, milk chocolate buttons, butter biscuits, and sweet grist. A good dose of vanilla and toasted oak follow, with gooey chocolate brownie and distant apple sauce.
Palate: A warm flow of melted chocolate leads the way with oily hints of cocoa butter and creamy toffee. Beautiful layers of vanilla fudge and shortbread develop, while a pinch of pepper creeps beneath.
Finish: Prickles of heat and notes of caramelised ginger, with toasted marzipan and more vanilla keeping things sweet and creamy.
