Jerez, Andalucía, Spain
Sooooo much happening on the nose here walnut, blood orange marmalade, creme caramel, 400 year old oak sideboard that's recently had a beeswax polish 😉 baked banana, old oak barrel cellar, spiced pineapple, cinnamon dusted apricot pastry, peaches in cream. In the mouth the first shot is pretty full on alcoholic hotness but as the mid palate rolls over the crest of the hill a huge intensity of dried fruit sweeps through your palate with a huge freshness of spicy tropical fruits then on the finish the nutty notes come through, caramel drizzled over walnuts, white truffle oil. Gorgeous!

Haven't opened one of these in a year or two. Leaner & more focused. Burnt orange, hazelnut, and cocoa on the nose. Cocoa & citrus is met with sea salt and walnut shells on the palate. Superdope...yes, that's one word.

I wish all things that smelled like butter pecan ice cream tasted like summer lemonade, burnt caramel and miles of mushrooms. I'll have to do with this.
