Nose - Esters, fruits, and grain. Lots of vitamins with grilled passion fruit, grapefruit, and orange zest. Milky brioche with old steel and liquorice. Grilled cereals, peanuts, and a bit of sulphur, but not the bad kind from some sherry casks. Prominent steel wool notes - interesting.

Taste - Passion fruit, cooked peaches, and liquorice. Milky wood, vanilla, and loads of cloves. It's spicy, fruity, and warm.

Finish - Linseed oil followed by black pepper, cardamom, and star anise. The spiciness is pretty nice and balanced. The fruits are a bit subdued now but still very nice. And there's some milky almond notes too.
