Color: Amber gold.
Nose: Opens with intense notes of ash and smoldering tar, with black pepper and licorice in the background. A buttery sweetness emerges, alongside orange zest, sea spray, and cloves.
Palate: Bold, oily, and smoky. Burnt lemons, pear, and cherry blend with intense spicy notes of cardamom and raisins.
Finish: Exceptionally long, briny, and smoky. Ashes mix with a touch of iodine, while licorice and red fruits leave a lingering bittersweet echo.
