Taste

Sweet jam and dark sugar slides down the tongue, with freshly sliced juicy apples joining. Winter spices, dessert wine, and calvados join in and caramelised malt rounds out the palate before a touch of speculoos biscuit splashes over the aftertaste.

Nose

Rich oven baked apple and pastry tart filling jumps out the glass, with a heady aroma of dried red fruits joining after. Delicate spice and yet more winter apple appears in the nose, before a hint of oak draws you in.

Pitch black with a dark brown head.
