EYE/ VISUAL/COLOUR
Pleasant shades of amber leaning towards burnt topaz, punctuated by indispensable glints of intense, wild red. The colours are both exceptionally deep and strikingly full of light.
NOSE/ OLFACTORY
Head notes: Lineage: woody. Dominant aroma of irresistible cedar wood.
Heart notes: Family: exotic. Sustained notes of candied mango combined with the vivaciousness of Fuji apples.
Base notes: Dominant notes: floral. Similar to a cognac, juxtaposing hawthorn with notes of jasmine.
PALATE/ GUSTATORY
First impression is captivating and creamy, then becomes delightfully sweet, without being overbearing. The radiant sweetness is the cornerstone of the perfect balance of flavours, sustained by an energetic yet gradual finish carried by notes of ginger.
