Appearance: Clear, limpid, transparent golden colour. Nose: The aromas are fine and delicate, expressing a balanced sweetness underpinned by woody notes, spices and hints of ripe fruit. Palate: The attack is moderately sweet, quickly lifted by well-integrated spices. The alcoholic presence makes itself felt with intensity without unbalancing the whole. The finish lingers harmoniously, letting the woody complexity and dried herb notes come through. Overall impression: A very good quality spirit that demonstrates a masterful balance between sweetness, spice and woody structure.
