Nose: Honey sweetness with hints of apple and pear. Light floral notes of heather and a touch of cinnamon spice. Subtle cereal grains and a whiff of toasted oak in the background.
Palate: Smooth and creamy mouthfeel. Rich honey flavor dominates, accompanied by ripe orchard fruits - mainly apples and pears. Vanilla and mild oak spices emerge, along with a nutty character reminiscent of almonds. Faint notes of citrus zest add brightness.
Finish: Medium length with lingering sweetness. The honey flavor persists, gradually fading to reveal gentle oak tannins and a mild spiciness. A subtle smokiness emerges at the very end, leaving a warm, slightly dry sensation.
