Fun Facts

Product Details

Nose: Rich honey sweetness upfront, followed by notes of ripe pear and golden raisins. Subtle spicy hints of cinnamon and nutmeg emerge, alongside a faint whiff of oak.

Palate: Full-bodied and luscious. The honey flavors intensify, accompanied by juicy apple and dried apricot. A warming alcohol presence carries notes of vanilla and toasted almonds. The spice notes from the nose become more pronounced, with clove joining the mix.

Finish: Long and satisfying. The sweetness gradually fades, leaving a pleasant warmth and lingering flavors of honey, baking spices, and dried fruit. A subtle tannic quality from the oak provides a gentle drying effect, balancing the overall sweetness.
