Nose: Dusty and shy, offering notes of old pencil shavings and dried orange peel. Over time, creamy vanilla, sun-warmed oak, and mild hints of tropical fruits emerge.

Taste: Full-bodied and initially quite spicy, grabbing your attention. This intensity quickly fades, leaving behind teasing notes of white pepper, orange zest, and caramel.

Finish: Long, with the spiciness lingering. It provides warmth and a solid foundation for more whimsical notes of tropical fruits and varying layers of vanilla sweetness.

Comment: A quiet starter that delivers a comforting, spiced warmth.
