Nose: Fruity, apricot, banana supported by creamy vanilla pastry. Apple tea adds depth.
Mouth: Notes from sherry casks deliver a pleasant sweetness of dried plum and hazelnut. The experience continues with delicate fruitiness and acacia honey that adds complexity.
Finish: Delectable with a clean, perfectly controlled finish. A rich, slightly tannic sensation lingers on ripe fruit.

Nose: Complex, with notes of toast, dry peat and twigs. On aeration, the peat becomes more intense, almost animal-like. Exotic fruits (passion fruit, mango) and fresh figs add substance and verve to the aromatic palette.
Mouth: Dynamic, exotic, honeyed (lime blossom) and floral (hyacinth). The mid-palate is deeply rooted (ginseng, gentian), highlighting an extremely saline and refreshing minerality.
Finish: Long and balanced. Peat with chocolate, vanilla and spicy (saffron) accents takes center stage. Intensely, it invites us to savor a delicious plain pound cake. Scents of Havana, wildflowers and black licorice.
Nose: Subtle aromas of ripe fruit and vanilla emerge delicately. Mouth: On the palate, notes of toasted oak, caramel and spices blend harmoniously. Finish: The finish is long and warm, giving way to notes of dried fruit and honey.
