Nose

Intense, alcoholic and woody with gritty oak, cinnamon and nutmeg. Oily corn, dark spicy rye, herbal rye, wheat, marzipan, liquorice, treacle, dark chocolate and earth. Water gives balance.

Palate

Tight, alcoholic and woody with orange accented molasses, treacle, herbal rye, bitter chocolate spices and a touch of marzipan and oily corn. Water emphasises the corn.

Finish

Both mouth and eye watering! Very herbal with a marc-like note suggesting youth.

Comment

This has alcohol, complexity and character in abundance.
