An inviting aroma of key lime pie, with fresh citrus beautifully complemented by creamy notes of macadamia nuts and the warm, sweet scent of madeira cake. A hint of vanilla and gentle spices add extra depth.

Palate

Rich and full-bodied, with a decadent sweetness of runny honey, followed by the soft, buttery texture of scones with clotted cream. The palate evokes freshly baked treats, with hints of vanilla and a light spiciness blending harmoniously.

Finish

Sweet and refined, with lingering notes of green barley, marshmallows, and a subtle touch of coconut shavings. The finish is soft and alluring, with a delightfully creamy conclusion.
