Nose: Tropical fruits and vanilla create a soft, inviting aroma, with gentle hints of dried fruits and warm, comforting oak spices emerging over time.

Taste: Full-bodied, remarkably soft and balanced. It’s smooth and comforting, like sinking into a big, fluffy pillow.

Finish: Medium-long, developing a green note while maintaining its creamy, malty sweetness.

Comment: A real charmer!
