Tasting Notes
Nose: A captivating symphony of fresh apricot, orange blossom, and delicate rose petals immediately greets the senses. Underlying notes of sandalwood, mizunara oak, and a whisper of dark chocolate add complexity, hinting at mature sherry cask influence.
Palate: The palate opens with a smooth, velvety texture. Sweet fruit flavors of dried apricot, juicy peach, and candied orange peel intertwine with a gentle spice medley of cinnamon and nutmeg. A subtle whisper of honey and a distinct, fragrant Japanese oak presence (mizunara) emerge mid-palate, offering a unique, almost incense-like quality.
Finish: Long, elegant, and evolving. The finish leaves a lingering warmth with echoes of dark marmalade, delicate wood spice, and a very subtle, almost ethereal smoky quality from the mizunara. Hints of dried fruit and a touch of bitterness from fine dark chocolate provide a sophisticated close.
