Tasting Notes
Bottle limited to 1 per member
A wonderful golden to red-brown colour similar to a gemstone called Tiger’s eye caught our attention at first. Big, expressive, tropical fruit aromas as well as brown sugar brandy butter, ginger biscuits and brandy snaps made this an engaging experience. On the palate - deliciously dense, creamy dark chocolate crémeux (custard-based ganache) with crunchy nut praline and caramel sauce spiked with amaretto. With water, we swirled bramble jam into heavy vanilla custard but there was also an exotic, woody, almost other-worldly aroma at work, while to taste now - as smooth as you like chocolate cherry rum cake with meringue butter cream.
