Nose: Opens with a unique blend of chocolatey smoke, complemented by the sweetness of honey and ripe apples. As it rests, vanilla and a medley of nuts make their appearance.
Taste: Possessing a medium body, it dances on the palate with a sugary and slightly effervescent character. Notes of cinnamon are married to honey and the subtle warmth of heather smoke.
Finish: A journey of medium duration, with vanilla and chocolate taking the lead. The gentle waft of smoke lingers, though it mellows into a somewhat neutral profile as it fades.
Comment: Unexpected twists.
