Tasting Notes: The moment the glass is lifted to the nose, a rush of indulgent scents floods the senses. Thick caramel notes weave together with the sweetness of crme brle, evoking the rich, golden crust of a freshly torched dessert. Theres a rustic undertone of tobacco leaf, grounding the sweetness, while smoked oak adds a layer of warmth and depth. A faint touch of syrup lingers, its sugary richness mellowed only slightly by a whisper of ethanol, though the overall aroma remains rich, bold, and enveloping.
On the palate, the first sip bursts with syrupy sweetness, bringing to mind the comforting familiarity of brown sugar and the gentle heat of baking spices. It’s as if a handful of syrup-soaked raisins was blended with rich spices, their flavors unfolding with each sip. A bold spiciness dominates, punctuated by sharp notes of peppercorn that dance across the tongue, leaving behind an intense and satisfying warmth.
The finish is where the flavors settle into a grounded and lasting experience. Velvety vanilla emerges first, mingling with the syrup thats been a constant companion throughout. There’s a hint of leather, a nod to the spirits depth, complemented by the sharp kick of white peppercorn. Oak and spice follow, leaving a lasting impression that lingers, deep and steady, long after the last sip has disappeared.
