Wow! Punchy and floral on the nose, a touch of citrus and barrel char, pepper, citrus.
Rich on the palate. Huge juniper, spicy pepper, a touch of citrus and bold orange peel. Vanilla, lemon curd, rich barrel char and a twist of faint butterscotch.
Long finish, rich and brimming with complexity. Lemon curd, sweet vanilla, black tea, some pepper and orange peel.
