Producer Tasting Note

Nose: stunningly rich and full of detailed, polished dark fruits. Lots of rancio, cigar humidor, walnut oil, camphor and prune eau de vie. Also lighter fruit notes of apricot, guava, honey and soft, mulchy earthy notes. 

Palate: similarly and immediately stunning. Gorgeously rich, fruity, honeyed and earthy with layers and layers of tobaccos, rancio, dark chocolate and mulchy earthiness.

Finish: long, on crystalised fruits and dark fruits in syrup. A rusticity that nods towards similarly aged Armagnac at times.
