Nose: Sweet yet brooding. Leather, fudge, burnt caramel and tobacco leaves intertwine with dark chocolate. Lighter hints of vanilla and tropical fruits emerge over time.
Taste: Full bodied and indulgent. Chocolate and fudge return, joined by gentle spice, smooth vanilla and a touch of ripe strawberry sweetness. Toasted oak and nuts.
Finish: Long and satisfying. Chocolate and vanilla linger, now complemented by bright tropical fruit notes. Drying with more oaky spiciness in the end.
Comment: Dark indulgence with a tropical lift.
