     A very woody nose with lots of spice. There's some grape and exotic fruits buried underneath it all. Sharp. A quite sweet palate. Brioche buns with a touch of cinnamon and oak. Less fruity and spiced than the nose would suggest. Also more rounded. The finish is short. A flash of ginger and softer wood notes. It's not going to blow anybody away but it's not unpleasant.

     Very boring and short-winded

     lovely, smooth almost floral and nutty - medium finish, quite harsh when drank without ice though. Very easy to drink iced. My first tasting of this I loved it, second tasting somewhat underwhelmed, but upon giving it a proper go again I just love it- smooth, nutty, delicious. Would highly reccomend

     Flat, watery, just boring. Might work in a drink.
