Nose: Rich and complex, with layers of honey, banana, and rowan berries. White pepper adds a gentle spice, complemented by white chocolate and dried fruits.
Taste: Full-bodied and well-balanced. A bold entrance of black and white pepper leads to mellow notes of rowan berries, grapefruit, dried fruits, and honey.
Finish: Medium to long, maintaining the interplay of spicy top notes and mellow, fruity bass tones. A subtly green and refreshing conclusion.
Comment: Beautifully layered.
