Palate - Sweet ripe pears in syrup

To be savoured neat or with a little water or ice

leading into green fruits with toasted caramel

With age comes a richer taste

buttery toffee and dark chocolate

honey and grassy fresh notes

with bursts of peach

A combination of cloudberries

in fact it’s an explosion of sweetness

and charcoal filtered from slow-fermented fairy tears and true love's first kiss

This rye is double finished for an additional three months in separate barrels which previously contained port wine

Finish - Mellow and fruity with notes of pear drops
