A very fruity nose, with smells of green apple mixed to wax , some hints of paint remover and honey. This nose simply announces a nice complexity with a pleasant mix of smoothness and acidity.
In the palate, the impression is even better. Ripe fruits and green apple, honey with some slightly bitter nutty notes, cashew nut.
Nice finish, lingering and warm, where nutty hints seem to dominate, developing gently on nice moka notes.

The nose is a subtle and perfectly balanced mix of honey and flowers. Nice freshness and great smoothness. This seems to be a prelude to a great pleasure.
The first mouth is rather dry but develops quickly to become extremely complex after a while, with alternately liquorice or violet (tastes like Bowmore...), red currant jam, honey, the whole with a very pleasant warmth sensation.
The finish is long and warm. Very smooth, it prolongs perfectly the mouth impression.
