On the palate the sip is full and soft, with substantial body but no roughness: the natural sweetness coexists with a subtle salinity and recurring notes of caramel and bitter cocoa. The finish is elegant and persistent, with a warm spicy note that accompanies the retronasal. It is best enjoyed neat or with a splash of water to open up its profiles; the boxed packaging also makes it suitable as a gift, perfect with dark chocolate, dry pastries, or for contemplative sipping after a meal.
