Overall
Score
8.4
Nose
Nutty and more nutty to boot. Hazelnuts in chocolate, candy coated almonds and a lovely date and Brazil nut mix. Sweetness akin to a walnut whip.
Palate
Opens with chocolate, a dark chocolate walnut whip for those of us who prefer things that way. Slowly a drying tobacco leaf note emerges, humidors and cigars. Then a herbal quality comes through.
Finish
Long and quite gentle with that nuttiness returning.
Comment
Seriously on the nutty side, but balanced out with those lush chocolate notes.
