Tasting notes

Nose

At first come forward fruity and malty notes of baked pear, honey, orange, almond and pineapple. In short, a very fruity and spicy cake.

Palate

Dry and full, it follows the nose with a tad spicier profile at first with cloves, pepper and oak. Thereafter it evolves on caramel, apricot, liquorice and vanilla.

Finish

Very long and almost salty with fresh herbal notes, also orange peel and hazelnut.
