Taste note

Colour:
Pale gold

Nose:
Fresh and fruity, with a delightful burst of tropical fruits—mango, pineapple, and papaya—leading the way. Hints of green apple and pear add crispness, while soft vanilla, honey, and a touch of floral blossoms round out the nose with subtle complexity.

Palate:
Smooth and silky, the palate offers a harmonious blend of sweet and fruity flavors. Ripe mango, citrus, and melon are complemented by creamy vanilla and honeyed malt. There’s a light spiciness—white pepper and ginger—adding a gentle kick, with a whisper of oak providing structure without overpowering the vibrant fruitiness.

Finish:
Medium-length and refreshing, with lingering notes of tropical fruit and a soft, sweet vanilla undertone. The finish is clean and slightly drying, leaving a pleasant warmth that invites another sip.
