Tasting Notes

Nose: Red berries and bright caramel greet the nose first before an explosion of orange oil and dark chocolate. Further nosing reveals classic honeyed malt and touches of dry apricot. 

Palate: Citrus honey with more fresh red berries and orange oil. Dark chocolate once again lingers with more honey and apricot. Very slight tannin and hints of light peat emerge after some time. 

Finish: Long and fruit driven, with hints of dark chocolate covered orange slices once again making an appearance.
