Taster
Nose: Malty. Cheery cereal notes alongside with freshly squeezed orange juice. Distant aroma of dried fruit.
Palate: Smooth. Sweet and tender. Praline, nougat. Bowl of cereals with honey. Milky chocolate.
Finish: Nutty and creamy. Spicy comeback.
Comment: On the sweet side. An invitation to enter into the candyshop. A morning dram?
