Nose: Begins with an inviting mix of red fruits, leather, and dried fruits, complemented by subtle tobacco leaves. There's a creamy hint of butter and a sharp note of grapefruit, which, over time, is joined by a soft nuttiness.

Taste: The palate is full-bodied, bursting with richness and a juicy, fruity essence. It's a harmonious blend of red berries and luxurious chocolate.

Finish: The long finish echoes the palate's themes, maintaining its juicy and fruity character. It's like chocolate filled with red berry jam, ending with subtle touches of grapefruit and rowan berries.

Comment: Rich and satisfying.
