Sherry-soaked fruit, leather and fine tobacco lead, backed by spice and old oak. There’s a quiet smokiness sitting underneath, not dominant, just adding depth. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1545\" data-end=\"1804\"\u003eThe palate is full and silky. Dried fruit, caramel and nutty richness roll through first, followed by spice and a gentle peat influence that lifts rather than overwhelms. It’s rich, but balanced, nothing gets too heavy. \u003cspan class=\"\" data-state=\"closed\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1806\" data-end=\"1887\"\u003eThat interplay is what defines it, sherry depth meets freshness and subtle smoke.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1889\" data-end=\"2037\"\u003eThe finish is long and composed.
