Nose: Creamy almond milk, custard, and fluffy marshmallows take the lead, joined by a fruit cocktail draped in simple syrup. As it breathes, hints of oak and dust emerge.

Taste: A medium body with a drier, dustier touch, while the fruitiness lingers, though slightly reserved.

Finish: Stretches out long, keeping it somewhat dry with muted tones of black peppercorn, almonds, and a touch of vanilla.

Comment: Intriguing yet subtle.
