Taster
Nose: Intense and sweet with massive camphor note, then rosewater, maple syrup and boiled sweets before things shift into fragrant woods, bergamot and patchouli.
Palate: Sweet and thick to start. A slow build of oak with layers of flavour underneath: raspberry, fragrant flowers, then fresh pineapple and maraschino.
Finish: Balanced and complex.
Comment: Energetic and with considerable class. Highly recommended.
Score: 8.3
