Tasting Notes
Nose
Structured and layered. Dried tobacco, pressed wildflowers, toasted oak from the encino fermentation vats. Fifteen years of karwinskii growth, concentrated.
Palate
Dense and deliberate. Bitter chocolate, leather, dried herbs, roasted coffee. Complex and deeply rewarding.
Finish
Long and warming. Dry and mineral, with a late note of dark honey.
How to Serve
Neat. A contemplative pour — not to be rushed.
Food Pairing
Dark chocolate desserts, espresso, aged hard cheeses.
