Tasting Notes
- Appearance: Polished chestnut with amber highlights, glowing with richness and maturity.

- Palate: Dry yet smooth, with a velvety mouthfeel. Layers of walnut, almond, and dark toffee unfold alongside subtle spices, oak tannin, and a whisper of sea breeze - hallmarks of the Amontillado cask influence. The mid-palate offers complexity without overwhelming sweetness, making it ideal for those who enjoy a drier style of brandy.
