Review by Gordon & MacPhail

Colour

Dark Gold

Nose

Rich and complex: dates, prunes, and stewed raisins mix with cardamom pod and cinnamon spice, with time a zesty orange peel freshness develops.

Palate

Creamy with a mouth-warming spiciness, bountiful rich orange follows stewed raisins. Marzipan, cinnamon, and ginger unite reminiscent of a light fruitcake.

Finish

Delicate with lingering notes of oak, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
