Flavor Profile
Tasting Notes
Colour
orangey amber
air Nose
very soft, as you'd expect from the ABV, but also rather charmingly old school with this very leafy, aromatic sherry profile that incorporates many subtle dark fruits, milk chocolate, leather, rancio and even some lightly crystallised exotic fruit notes too. Some earthy teas, eucalyptus and plum wine. Sort of fragile, but very beautiful
restaurant Palate
perfectly fresh, clean and rather nutty sherry. Also with a lot of milk chocolate so that it becomes rather like a Snickers bar with this additional caramel sweetness. Indeed, there's further notes of caramel and coconut chocolate wafers, rosewater, mint tea and red liquorice. The strength may be low, but it never feels like it's holding it back
timer Finish
medium in length, soft, juicy earthiness, tobaccos, mushroom powder, miso and hints of soy sauce and pomegranate molasses
