SOLD OUT! - Not expected to return to KWM!

SOFT, SPICY, RICH AND INTENSE

A Society bottling of Armagnac bottled at 47% after 22 years after maturing in Refill Bourbon Ex-Hogsheads.

Panel's Tasting Note: "Wonderfully soft and perfumed yet spicy, deep, intense on the nose - hints of sandlewood, dark cherries, toasted apple, candyfloss, oranges and spices transported us to a late autumn bonfire (not Guy Fawkes or Halloween though). On the palate initial intense spicy perfumed woody notes gave way to a soft creamy taste with a hot spicy almost tannic finish. Water (and it didn't really need it) made it waxier with church candles and saddle soap, sweet caramel and rich apple tarte tatin. To taste it seems even spicy - cinnamon, aniseed and clove but still very soft and supple with a long sweet unctuous finish."

Drinking Tip: "A perfect autumnal dram but would be fantastic as a digestif."
