Aroma with water
Very rich with hints of big ripe oranges. Aromas of highly polished hardwood floors and comfy old leather armchairs. Some heathery notes and a touch of menthol. Some vanilla notes develop.
Taste without water
Very, very fruity - juicy oranges explode throughout the mouth! A smoky note develops. Hints of dark chocolate and toasted malt.
Aroma with water
'Old' notes remain - leather-bound ledgers, tobacco (cigar boxes) - a dry fruitiness (dried apricots) combines with a ground coffee note.
Taste with water
Menthol flavour evident initially with a hint of smoke. Smooth sweetness slides around the mouth and reveals a more subtle soft fruity note - pears and peaches.
