Nose
A complex, wine-woody aroma with notes of linseed oil, polished mahogany, dried seaweed, baked fig, and butterscotch, evolving into pungent, oily, and fragrantly smoky hints of tarry rope and boat engine.
Palate
An ultra-smooth, oily texture with a brief sweetness, tinged with salt and pepper, becoming savory and smokier. It offers sweet toffee, Jamaica cake, wood fires, coal dust, and prominent mouth-gripping tannins.
Finish
Long, sweetly warming, and faintly smoky, reminiscent of smoldering beech leaves and chanterelle mushrooms, with notes of salted caramel, cigar ash, and a reasserting smokiness.
