Nose

Very big. Cream, toffee, hazelnuts, potpourri notes. With water, faint peat.

Palate

Fudgy, creamy, nutty. Rosewater, potpourri, developing peaty dryness.

Finish

Firmly enwrapping, soothing. Long, developing a hint of aniseed. Dryish.

Comment

Gentle, smooth and delicately balanced, but with some underlying muscle. Complex and sophisticated. More of a James Bond than a Braveheart.
