Ah, this one’s a proper sherry bomb, in the best way possible 🥃 Massive dried fruit hit upfront, like a fruitcake soaked in old Oloroso. It’s sweet but not cloying, with acacia honey and soft, ripe peaches coming through. There’s a lovely softness to it, almost like a delicate white wine from Burgundy – think Côte de Léchet or a great old Chablis. Then you get these elegant pear liqueur notes, mixed with some lemongrass and herbal teas. It’s wonderfully honeyed, with hints of pink grapefruit syrup and mirabelles. The texture is just… gentle. Like a whisperer of a dram, with a medium body. It reminds me of a bit of porridge with honey on top, and later, some ripe apples and a touch of verbena tea. The finish brings in some pine nuts and a subtle hint of barley syrup, with just the faintest echo of herbal cough syrup. Honestly, sipping this feels like listening to a chamber music quartet – it’s refined and elegant, with a sort of prima ballerina grace. Not a bold statement, but a beautiful, fragility that lingers. Really lovely stuff for a quiet evening. ✨
