Online Tasting Note for reference:

Nose:
A seductive melange of classic sherry aromas such as sultanas, dates and figs, the spice of tobacco leaves, a vanilla sweetness, wine-like notes, cloves, honey as well as grandma’s old oak cupboard with a hint of furniture polish.

Palate:
Soft and oily-velvety attack with lots of spice, sultanas & sweet sherry notes, followed by a subtle nuttiness, which then turns into flavours of orange zest, mon chéri and lots of dark chocolate.

Finish:
Quite long, with lots of spice and fading notes of sherry & tobacco; ending with cocoa powder and dry oak spice.
