Clear, golden amber.
Cigar box, cedar wood and hazelnut with subtle lemon zest, chocolate and faint ginger and salty seaweed.
Wonderfully complex and refined with assertive but integrated oakyness, distinct nutty notes and delicate Christmas spice.
Lingering nutty and spicy oak with a delicate sea saltyness.
