  • Nose: Embarks with verdant forest scents and sweet touches of floral honey complemented by the warmth of ground pepper. Delicate and sweet tropical fruits merge with herbal nuances, while smoked almond, vanilla, and cinnamon enrich the bouquet.
  • Taste: Vibrantly kicks off with a spicy array of dried chili and crisp bell pepper before mellowing to allow the sweeter notes of candied citrus and apple to emerge. Vanilla and cinnamon weave through the profile, supported by the robustness of pot still spices.
  • Finish: The journey concludes with a remarkably enduring finish, where the oak and spices continue to resonate, symbolizing the lasting impact of Tree No. 5's contribution.
