Bottled at 50.6% ABV, this 2025 edition moves between chocolate, citrus, and creamy dessert notes as it opens.

Tasting Notes

• Nose: Citrus and sweet vanilla.
• Palate: Milk chocolate and orange zest at full strength; grapefruit and panna cotta emerge with water.
• Finish: Apple and lemon zest become more apparent with further dilution.

What Makes It Special
