FLAVOUR & FINISH: Honeyed cereal and vanilla lead into orchard fruit and gentle florals, then rich dates, figs and raisin. The palate brings cherry, plum and redcurrant with caramel, milk chocolate and roasted almond; long sherried warmth PAN-ASIAN CRAFT: Created by The Orientalist Spirits (Taiwan) from spirits distilled in Japan, Taiwan and India, matured for 12 years then finished in Oloroso sherry casks for extra depth.
