Taste & aroma

The producer describes: “On the nose, Scents of rich sherry, blossoming into sweet caramel and polished leather. On the palate, An initial taste of sweet berries and cream that evolves into a feast of roasted nuts and malt. The finish: Soft and dry with a delicate hint of sweet sugar and spiced oak that lingers long on the tongue.” (source)
