Nose
Glacé cherries soaked in dark rum, old leather armchairs, cocoa nibs and a whisper of tobacco smoke drifting through a library.
Palate
Rich and oily — black forest gateau, candied orange peel, walnut bread, with sherry cask tannin giving backbone to the Lakeland malt.
Finish
Long, warming, dark-chocolate bitter-sweet with a flicker of clove and dried fig.
