On the palate it is round and enveloping, with a sensation of controlled warmth and a long finish recalling sweet tobacco and toasted vanilla; the persistence is elegant rather than muscular, inviting contemplation of the sip. It is best enjoyed neat in a small glass, and can be paired with dry, fruity desserts or cigars for a meditative moment. Also ideal for those seeking a vintage bottle to cellar.
