Nose Yep, it smells like a homemade Christmas cake that's been fed sherry for the past six months. Sweet layers of treacle and sticky toffee pudding are supported by wintery spice and meaty malt.
Palate Big and bold with dense, tannic, leathery oak and tobacco, drying spice, and sticky dried fruits. Fiery cinnamon is tamed by layers of maple syrup and chocolate fondant.
Finish A warming finish with notes of spiced biscuits and caramelised sugar, bolstered by that hearty cask strength.
